The Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 gives everyone a right of access to information held by Scottish public authorities.  The aim of the Act is to increase openness and transparency by allowing people to access information about how decisions are taken and how public services are delivered.

The Act now requires Housing Associations to adopt and maintain a publication scheme which has the approval of the Scottish Information Commissioner, and publish information in accordance with that scheme.

Information included in GWHA’s publication scheme can be found through our Guide to Information.
