Publication Schemes

Each public authority covered by the Freedom of Information Law has a legal duty to adopt and maintain a publication scheme in accordance with Section 5 of the FOI Law. The main purpose of a publication scheme is to make information readily available without the need for specific written requests. Schemes are intended to encourage organizations to publish proactively, and develop a greater culture of openness.

The Law states that Information to be published by public authorities includes:-

·        the functions of the authority, what work it does and how it sets about its tasks.

·        the departments and agencies of the authority.

·        the subjects handled by each department or authority, with the locations of the departments and agencies and the opening hours of all offices.

·        the title and business address of the Principal Officer and other key officers within the authority.

·        Classes of records held.
