Freedom of Information Act

The freedom of information Act 2000 obliges the practice to produce a Publication Scheme. This Publication Scheme is a guide to the ‘classes’ of information the practice intends to routinely make available. The scheme is available on request.

The Freedom of Information Act provides public access to recorded information that we hold. It does this in two ways:

  • We are obliged to proactively publish certain information about our activities through a publicly available publication scheme.
  • Giving anyone the right to request recorded information that we hold, and we must provide this information within 20 working days unless there is a good reason not to disclose as permitted under the act.
