The university at the centre of the climate change row over stolen e-mails broke the law by refusing to hand over its raw data for public scrutiny.
The University of East Anglia breached the Freedom of Information Act by refusing to comply with requests for data concerning claims by its scientists that man-made emissions were causing global warming.
The Information Commissioner’s Office decided that UEA failed in its duties under the Act but said that it could not prosecute those involved because the complaint was made too late, The Times has learnt. The ICO is now seeking to change the law to allow prosecutions if a complaint is made more than six months after a breach.
Oh I expect we will see the Warm-mongers all light up with the “It was for a good cause” excuse.
Sorry that excuse won’t wash. If the University of East Anglia and the CRU in particular were prepared to violate the Freedom of Information Act it doesn’t take much of leap, actually just a small step, to realise that on the balance of probability they probably fabricated the data to show warming where there was none.
Who ever hacked/stole/leaked the emails needs to be given a medal for revealing to the world the deep fraud of the few that has brought the Climate Change industry to its knees.
Now we need official investigations into what is real and what is not. We now know pretty much that AGW is a myth, fabricated with dodgy data and corrupt computer programs designed by corrupt “scientists”.
I won’t hold my breath waiting for apologies from the warm-mongers. I do want to see Al Gore and Pachauri stripped of their Nobel peace prize as it was issued under false pretenses based on a figment of one of Pachauri’s employees imagination and the perpetrated as a fraud upon the world.
