What to keep in mind
Document prior requests and refusals, identify the correct procedure and make any application proportionate rather than an unlimited search.
Overly broad demands may fail if standing and purpose are not established.
Distinctions often confused
Information rights do not necessarily grant management powers or unrestricted access to every operational system.
Frequently asked questions
Can I demand to inspect the share register?
That depends on standing and the relevant corporate regime.
