Requesting Information

In May 2015 the Parish Council adopted a Publication Scheme, based on the Model Publication Scheme produced by the Information Commissioners Office. The aim of the Scheme  is to enable public authorities to indicate their approach to making  information available to the public as part of their normal day-to-day activities.

A copy of the Council’s Publication Scheme can be found here.

The Scheme sets out the range of information which the Council might produce, and where this is the case, how it can be accessed. The Council aims to publish as many as possible of the relevant documents on this website.  There are pages for meeting minutes, financial and accounting information and governance documents.

A request for information covered by the Publication Scheme can be made to the Parish Clerk. In such cases if copying or other costs apply the table below sets out these charges.
