Information access group looks for citizens’ support

A new not-for-profit organisation that aims to vindicate the rights of citizens to access information has been formed, and is looking for members to support its goals.

Right To Know has been established by former Irish Examiner and Storyful journalist Gavin Sheridan and Malachy Browne, managing editor of online news agency Reported.ly.

Its founders say the objective of the organisation is to be “both a media outlet and a transparency organisation”.
