Freedom of Information Act

alt=""The Freedom of Information Act gives you the right to request any information from any public authority. It promotes openness and accountability among public sector organisations, so that everyone can understand how authorities make decisions, carry out their duties and spend public money. There are some exemptions to this general right of access. These are known as ‘absolute exemptions’ and ‘qualified exemptions’.  If a qualified exemption applies, then it is subject to the public interest test. This means we must decide whether in each case it serves the public interests better to withhold or disclose the information requested.In accordance with the Freedom of Information Act Bradpole Parish Council maintains a Publication Scheme which sets out what information we routinely make available, how the information can be accessed, and whether we will make a charge to provide it.
