Freedom of Information Requests

If you cannot find the information you need on our website or in "A Guide to our Information," please complete this form. The Freedom of Information Act 2000 grants a general right of access to information held by public authorities.

Exemptions

Some information may fall under one of the exemptions under the Act and, therefore, may not be released.

Charges

In most cases, information will be supplied free of charge. However, a charge may be applicable to some information, particularly for paper copies sent out by the post or where a substantial amount of work would be involved in retrieving the requested information. You will be advised of costs prior to any work being undertaken.

When will I get a reply?

Your completed form will be processed and the information will be sent directly to you at the postal or email (if appropriate) address you have supplied with your request.
