What happened: The Scottish Information Commissioner has initiated legal action against the Scottish government for missing a deadline to release documents related to the Sturgeon inquiry.
Why it matters:
- The delay affects transparency and public trust in the inquiry process.
- It impacts those seeking access to information about the inquiry, including journalists and the public.
MNN Take: The government is legally required to provide requested documents within set timescales, and failure to do so can lead to court proceedings to enforce compliance.
