Freedom of Information

The Freedom of Information Act gives you the right to access information held by the Ireland Wales Co-operation Programme.

The provisions of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Acts have applied to the Ireland Wales Programme since 31st May 2006. The Acts establish three statutory rights:

  • A right for each person to access information held by public bodies
  • A right for each person to have official information relating to himself/herself amended where it is incomplete, incorrect or misleading 
  • A right to obtain reasons for decisions affecting oneself.

The Acts assert the right of members of the public to obtain access to official information to the greatest extent possible consistent with the public interest and the right to privacy of individuals.
