2.ii: Rules

Lay out the way in which public officials will handle their various access to information regime functions.

Other Information:

Rules serve to ordain or lay out the way in which public officials will handle their various access to information regime functions. They may provide binding instructions, mandated actions, or standard operating procedures to advance implementation of the access to information law. Rules in themselves require a process of drafting and ordinance and imply both a negative and a positive concept: negative in the sense that it prevents failure or negligence from taking place, and a positive one, because it provides an orientation and clear guidance.
