Freedom of Information

The Freedom of Information Act promotes greater openness and accountability across the public sector by requiring all 'public authorities' to make information available proactively, through a publication scheme.

"Public authorities" are defined in the Act and include universities.

The University of Hull has adopted a Publication Scheme that describes the information the University publishes or intends to publish.
