1. CIC wants to streamline the process of hearing second appeals / complaints from senior citizens or physically challenged persons out of turn. The current system is not working and a second appeal had to be filed with the CIC on this issue.
Please see: http://www.rti.india.gov.in/cic_decisions/CIC_WB_A_2010_000965-SM_M_65985.pdf

In the next meeting the issue was decided and from now on all priority cases which are heard out of turn, the reason for taking up such cases out of turn will be listed in the order itself.

2. CIC wants to come out with a Draft Citizen Charter. Secretary of CIC suggested to wait till the current discussion of inclusion of Citizens Charter (to be included) under Lokpal is decided. Nevertheless staff have been asked to examine Citizen Charter prepared by IC SG in detail.

3. The CIC and ICs want to visit other countries where FoIA and RTI have good implementation like - USA, New Zealand and Scandinavian countries. At least 4 ICs will make the trip this current financial year.
