Freedom of Information
The Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000 was passed on 30 November 2000. It gives a general right to see recorded information held by public authorities, subject to a number of exemptions.
Ealing Council has two main responsibilities under the Act:
-
to have a publication scheme in place
-
to respond to individual requests for information
The Publication Scheme must specify the classes of information the authority publishes, how they will be published and whether there is a charge for the information.
Environmental Information RegulationsSpecific regulations about accessing environmental information.
Requests for informationHow to make a request for information under the Freedom of information Act.
ChargesThe costs for providing information.
Making a complaint or appealIf you want to complain about the way we have handled a request for information, or if you want to appeal against a decision we have made.
