Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

For people who haven't yet seen it, please take a look at the free website What Do They Know?  It helps access information about UK central and local government, Parliament, the NHS, etc.

As a Haringey councillor I now routinely make Freedom of Information (F.o.I.) requests to find out what's going on. A huge advantage of What Do They Know is that everyone can see the questions asked and information obtained.

Today, for instance, Linda Sinclair got a reply from Haringey to her F.o.I about one-bedroom Council flats available to people who "under occupy" their flats. Linda has used this website to ask 36 other councils about this.

I agree Councillor, it's a very useful tool.

I myself work for another Local Authority, and I raise requests using Whatdotheyknow, and I also spend a lot of my time answering requests from here!
