i have been pondering the question of when is the most effective time
to file a FOIPA. presumably this would be after the statute of
limitations, plus some delay, to ensure that completed/discarded
investigations are included in the scope of the disclosure.

does anyone have guidance on this timing?  perhaps 6-8 years after
initially coming under scrutiny?
