dc.descriptionThis document sets out UNEP’s Standard Operating Procedure for implementing its Access-to-Information Policy, describing purpose, scope, and the end-to-end workflow for handling public information requests. It defines roles for the Requestor, the Access-to-Information Desk, Responsible Offices, the Senior Legal Officer, an independent three-member Panel, and the Head of UNEP, who issues final decisions. It specifies submission via the central desk, acknowledgement within five working days, and an intended response within 30 calendar days, with an appeals pathway and Panel review timelines up to 60 working days. It details information classifications, confidentiality exceptions aligned with ST/SGB/2007/6, possibilities for partial disclosure, extraordinary disclosures when public or environmental harm is imminent, required recordkeeping, and cost recovery for large-volume reproductions.en
