This Practice Note considers the provisions for refusing vexatious or repeated requests under section 14 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FIA 2000). Vexatious or repeated requests―scope of the exemption Section 14 is found in FIA 2000, Pt I which prescribes how requests made under the legislation should be handled. Although it is not one of the exemptions from the right to know listed in FIA 2000, Pt II, in practice it has the same effect in that it allows a public authority to refuse a request for information in specified circumstances. • section 14(1) effectively exempts public authorities from the obligation set out at FIA 2000, s 1(1), namely to inform requesters whether information is held and if so, to provide it to them. This exemption applies where the request is vexatious. FIA 2000 does not further define ‘vexatious’ • section 14(2) provides the means for public authorities to refuse requests that are repeated. Specifically, it applies where the authority has already provided the information, or ‘substantially

Freedom of speech describes the legal space in which individuals, media and organisations may express opinions and receive information without unjustified interference, across litigation, regulation, employment and public law (including judicial review).In England & Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland it is a qualified right under Article 10 ECHR, given effect by the Human Rights Act 1998 and developed in case law. Public authorities must not act incompatibly, and interferences must be prescribed by law, pursue a legitimate aim (eg national security, prevention of disorder or crime, protection of reputation or the rights of others, confidentiality, maintaining the authority of the judiciary) and be necessary and proportionate. Devolved legislation and executive action must also comply (Scotland Act 1998; Northern Ireland Act 1998).Common limits arise through defamation, contempt of court and reporting restrictions, confidentiality and privacy, public order and hate‑speech offences, harassment and communications offences, counter‑terrorism, and professional or employment duties. Political speech and press freedom attract strong protection, but not immunity.In Ireland, freedom of expression is protected by the Constitution (Article 40.6.1(i)) and the European Convention on Human Rights Act 2003; restrictions are tested for necessity and proportionality in constitutional review. The term is descriptive rather than defined in statute, and usage is consistent across these jurisdictions.
