FOIA Advisory Committee

The FOIA Advisory Committee is a group that provides guidance and recommendations on the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), which allows the public to access federal agency records. Established by the National Archives and Records Administration, the committee includes members from various sectors, including government, advocacy groups, and academia. Its goal is to improve transparency and the processes surrounding information requests, ensuring that the public can effectively obtain information while balancing the need for privacy and security. The committee meets regularly to discuss challenges and propose solutions related to FOIA implementation and access.
