How RTI practitioners use this

PIOs drafting §7(8)(i) reasoned rejections — drop the 2-line quotable block into the order to anchor the Section cited
FAAs drafting §19 speaking orders — cite named precedents from this curated list to strengthen the decision
Applicants filing First or Second Appeal — counter-cite landmark rulings that favour disclosure
Advocates preparing writs — build a case-law appendix from this list
Researchers — use the JSON/CSV for bulk analysis of RTI case-law patterns

Refreshed

Updated whenever the case-law corpus grows. Check the What's new page for latest additions.

Caveat

Each ratio is an editorial compression of the reported judgment. Before citing in any formal filing, verify against the full reported decision. RTI Wiki does not warrant legal correctness for any specific dispute.
