Denning Trilogy

The Denning Trilogy refers to three key legal cases in England that shaped the concept of official secrecy and transparency in government. These cases, primarily associated with Lord Denning, emphasized the balance between the need for government confidentiality and the public's right to know. They established principles regarding access to government documents and the accountability of public officials. Overall, the trilogy underscores the importance of transparency in a democratic society, ensuring that while some information must remain private for national security, the public still deserves insight into government operations.
