Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA), Public Authorities must be clear and proactive about the information they publish. To comply with this Act, we are placing an increasing amount of information on this website.

  • Who we are
  • What we do
  • What we spend and how we spend it
  • What our priorities are and how we are doing
  • How we make decisions
  • Our Policies and Procedures
  • Publications
  • Lists and Registers

You are entitled to ask us for information which is not available on our website or exempt under the FOIA.
