FOIA News (2015-2023)Allan BlutsteinComment

When will the Department of Justice’s Office of Information Privacy release its summary of annual FOIA data for fiscal year 2021? We don’t know. But probably soon. Since 2011, OIP has released its annual summary no later than June nine times. The two outliers involved the FY 2013 summary, which was issued on July 18, 2014, and its FY 2011 summary, which was issued on September 6, 2012.

In the meantime, the raw data is available on FOIA.gov. A summary of the data is available in a FOIA Advisor post dated March 3, 2022.
