Access to information

We use information to help us provide services to you.  Some of our information is personal to individuals living in the District, other information is more general and relates to Council business, our priorities and decisions.     
 
We are committed to managing our information effectively and in compliance with the following pieces of legislation:
 
  • Data Protection Act 1998
  • Freedom of Information Act 2000
  • Environmental Information Regulations 2004
  • Re-use of Public Sector Information Regulations 2005 
As part of our compliance, we have written a public services trust charter, our 'Information Charter', which explains how we will manage our information, what your rights are, and what you can expect from us.
 
Our Information Charter can be viewed here.
