20 Years of Freedom of Information in Scotland: The journey so far and the road ahead | Law Society of Scotland

9 April 2025

Live online | 1 hour’s verifiable CPD

As 2025 marks 20 years of Freedom of Information (FOI) laws in Scotland, we must reflect on the significant role it has played in the public sector and consider what the next 20 years will bring.

Lorraine Currie, Director at Anderson Strathern and one of only five accredited specialists in data protection and freedom of information law in Scotland, is leading our anniversary webinar on FOI. We will discuss how FOI and legal professional privilege sit together, the potential extension of FOI to other bodies, and the implications of the growing role of technology on FOI.

This webinar is suitable for those with a general interest or occasional use of FOI laws and those regularly engaged in FOI practices.
