Draw the Act to the attention of potential applicants.", "Image ImageDescription": "Help potential applicants make requests in writing. Help potential applicants frame their requests. Consider what can be provided free of charge if applicant does not want to pay. Consider what can be provided within the upper limit if request exceeds limit. First look at s.45 of the Act, and then go through the Code with class. Refer also to ICO Guidance no.23 in courseware. Note that the Code advises (at Part II paras.5 & 9) contact by phone or  in connection with advice & assistance \u2013 consider this in the light of the authority\u2019s additional responsibilities under the EIR\u2019s in relation to oral requests. But at para.9, note that while at times it would be really useful for you to know why they want the information (i.e. what they are really after) in order to help, you are not allowed to ask \u2013 access under FOIA is purpose blind. You might connect this to the fact that special status applicants will usually do worse under FOIA \u2013 since anyone can ask for anything disclosure to one requestor is disclosure to all the world, so you can\u2019t say \u2013 I will tell him, but not her, or I don\u2019t mind giving this information to this disgruntled employee, but not to that media journalist. This is particularly relevant to disclosures of third party personal data under the DPA \u2013 a requestor is likely to get more outside of an FOI request because an exemption from the non-disclosure provisions might then apply to facilitate specific disclosures \u2013 considered further in course F4.", "Image XResolution": "37", "Image YResolution": "37", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Centimeter", "Image Software": "SlidePlayer", "Image YCbCrPositioning": "Centered"}
