Dr Ben Worthy, an academic at Birkbeck College, is looking for FOI officers in local government to complete a survey.
The survey is part of a joint US/UK research project looking at FOI request burdens, funded by Democracy Fund. They want to know more about requests and burdens on authorities, as well as possible changes such as the use of AI to help make requests.
The survey should take around 5-10 minutes to complete. An anonymised summary of the findings will be sent to anyone who wishes to see it.
You can read more about the project here. The survey can be accessed here.
