How will I request additional information not covered by this scheme?
The Council includes as much information in the Publication Scheme as it can however, if you cannot find what you are looking for you can make a request for the information.
The Act is retrospective, and information requests can be for information created before the Act came fully in to force in 2005. However, where any of the information comes within an exempt category either under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 or other relevant legislation, it will be published with the exempt material deleted.
Will I be charged for information?
Material which is published and accessed on the website can be downloaded free of charge. Some information may only be available in hard copy and some information will only be available for inspection. Charges may be made for information subject to a legal charging regime. Charges under the publication scheme may be made for actual disbursements such as:
- Photocopying
- Printing
- Postage and packaging
- The cost directly incurred as a result of viewing information
Any charges will be in accordance with the Council’s fees and charging guidance.
