One resident submits over 10 per cent of requests
Freedom of Information legislation is creating a more transparent government, according to a minister.
More than 400 requests have been submitted across government departments since its introduction in the Island - with the majority of them being answered.
Data obtained through FOI has lifted the lid on a range of issues, including hospital negligence, drug abuse, safety on electric trams, and, most recently, VAT paid on imported aircraft.
According to figures from the Cabinet Office, one local resident has been responsible for more than 10 per cent of all requests submitted.
Policy and Reform Minister Chris Thomas is urging the public to be sensible with requests:

No public board meeting for Manx Care due to General Election
Chauffeur needed to provide 'professional and discreet service' for VIPs
Fire officer praises 'quick-thinking' staff after blaze at fire station
Chief Minister: 'AG not out to silence debate'
