Section 4(1)(b) of the RTI Act, 2005, lists the specific types of information that every public authority is obligated to publish proactively on its public domain.<\/section>\n
Among the information required to be published under Section 4(1)(b) are: the powers and duties of its officers and employees (Section 4(1)(b)(ii)), the norms set by it for the discharge of its functions (Section 4(1)(b)(iv)), and the names, designations and other particulars of the Public Information Officers (Section 4(1)(b)(xvi)). Information received in confidence from a foreign Government, however, is typically considered exempt from disclosure under Section 8(1)(a) of the Act, as its disclosure could prejudicially affect relations with a foreign State. Therefore, it is not an obligation to proactively publish such information on the public domain.<\/section>\n
