The Sri Lanka Right to Information Act No. 12 of 2016 is to become effective in a few days. The act was gazetted on 4 August 2016, but embargoed for six months with an additional space of another six months allowed for all provisions of the Act to be applicable to all public authorities. The RTI Act is a great step forward by the present Government despite some definitional issues and some inconsistencies in it.
