Those that use Facebook do not upload information regularly. y Some public institutions do not have funds to maintain their websites. These include the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Education and Training, and the Directorate on Corruption and Economic Offences. Category 2: Requests for information 24 y Most surveyed public institutions have designated information officers, except for a few, such as the Lesotho National Dairy Board. y Most information officers were responsive and answered the questions received. y Most information officers replied within two days and answered the questions without questioning the motive of the researchers.
