This is a new feature request for the ability to make scheduled/repeat FOI requests.

Sometimes during research one finds out about a meeting / event in the future which one would want to submit an FOI request for information in relation to after the event. It would be useful to be able to draft the request and set it to be sent at a future date.

Repeat requests could be used eg. to request meeting minutes after regular meetings; or to regularly request the release of statistics.

Safeguards would be needed to prevent abuse, similar to safeguards needed for bulk requests (eg. pre-moderation by the team, the option only available to established/approved users)
