Freedom of information
We want to share information with you about how we do things and what we spend money on.
The Freedom of Information Act allows you to ask us for all the recorded information we have on any subject. You don’t have to tell us why you want it, and we won’t ask. We will be open and honest.
Asking for information
Before asking for information, please check information we do not provide if your request is about:
- schools

- public funerals and people who have died with no next of kin
Please also go to freedom of information responses to check if it has already been published.

We will reply to you within 20 working days of receipt of your application. If we can’t give you some of the information you've asked for, we’ll tell you why.
