Hi, I'm Viyu. Ask me about the stories collected here. I answer only from them, with numbered links to the outlets that published them, and I say so when they do not cover it.
Press Release: Information Commissioner’s Office and Transparency Maldives Launch RTI Implementation Assessment Report
The Information Commissioner's Office and Transparency Maldives, with the Centre for Law and Democracy, published a comprehensive assessment of Right to Information Act implementation in the Maldives, scoring it 0.56 out of 1.00 ('mediocre'). The report finds only 38% of RTI requests received full information on time, no assessed public authority has formal RTI implementation plans, and proactive disclosure remains the weakest area.
