As explained in previous sections, the aim of the Publication Scheme is to set out:
- What information we publish or intend to publish as a matter of course
- How this information will be published and made available
- Whether the information will be available free of charge or by payment.
In order to achieve these objectives, the information is divided into classes that have been grouped under two themes or sections to assist the public find the information they require more easily. A list of publications can be found under each class within the two sections. Each listing will detail the following pieces of information.
- The title of the publication
- A brief description about the publication
- The manner in which it is made available (for example, website, by email, or by post)
- A charge (if applicable)
- Further notes to help users to identify information of interest to them.
