Publication Schemes
Each public authority covered by the Freedom of Information Law has a legal duty to adopt and maintain a publication scheme in accordance with s. 5 of the FOI Law. The main purpose of a publication scheme is to make information readily available without the need for specific written requests. Schemes are intended to encourage organisations to publish proactively, and develop a greater culture of openness.
The Law states that Information to be published by public authorities includes:
* The functions of the authority, what work it does and how it sets about its tasks
* The departments and agencies of the authority
* The subjects handled by each department or authority, with the locations of the departments and agencies and the opening hours of all offices
* The title and business address of the Principal Officer and other key officers within the authority
* Classes of records held
* Manuals, interpretations, rules, guidelines, practices or precedents
