Freedom of Information Requests

The Freedom of Information Act gives individuals or organisations the right to request information from any public authority.

The Act requires all public authorities - to adopt and publicise a scheme which sets out all the information which the Council holds and routinely publishes.

The Council has adopted a Publication Scheme which is available below in 'related documents'.

The purposes of this scheme is to make sure that the significant and growing amount of information is easily available without the need for individuals to make a specific request, and to encourage a culture of openness within local government.
