Will there be a charge for this information?

There will normally be no charge for making a request for information, which is contained within the Publication scheme {with the exception of a few specific documents}.

Information published on our website can be viewed/downloaded free of charge. Most documents are also available for inspection free of charge at libraries or Council offices. You may get photocopies of most documents. However charges may be applied if significant amounts of work or copying of printed material is required.

There may be a charge for a small number of specific documents. If a charge is applicable this will be indicated in the publication scheme under each class of information and this has been identified in the scheme by one asterisk*. The price of the document will be specified at the time of request.

In 2005 you may request other information the Council may hold [see below ] and this will be charged in accordance with the regulation fees under the Freedom of Information Act.
