It places a number of obligations upon all Local Councils. One of these obligations is that they must produce and maintain a publication scheme. This is a list of the classes of information which the Council is prepared to make available to members of the public.<\/p>\n\n
Publication Schemes are intended to encourage organisations to publish more information proactively and to develop a culture of openness.<\/p>\n\n
