Freedom of Information

Freedom of Information Act (2000) extends the public’s rights of access to information held by public authorities, including further and higher education institutions, and imposes a number of obligations on them. These obligations increase the College’s accountability and transparency regarding operations and decisions made by the organisation to gain public understanding of its nature, decisions and activities via the systematic publication of all relevant information unless there are exemptions permitted by the Act.
