The Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 (FOISA) requires that all housing associations/co-operatives in Scotland must produce and maintain a publication scheme. This must detail all of the key information that we publish and how you can access it. The Guide to Information is our publication scheme, and contains links to where you can find all of the information listed online.
Glasgow West Housing Association Ltd has adopted the Scottish Information Commissioner’s (SIC) Model Publication Scheme (MPS).
All of the information listed is available on our website (unless stated), and completely free to access online. However, we understand that not everyone will have online access and where this is the case you can contact us to view this in our office (where this would be convenient).
If you would like a printed copy of any of the information listed, unfortunately we may have to charge a small fee to provide this. This fee will never exceed the cost of photocopying and postage – and we will let you know any total cost before we forward this to you.
Our charges for providing any information detailed in this guide can be found in our Charging Schedule.
If you would like to request information that we publish in a format other than online, or arrange a visit to our office to view information, please contact:

Whilst we will try to make all of the information we have detailed available, in rare cases there may be some information that we cannot make available. For example, sometimes if we were to publish certain committee/board minutes, it could reveal personal details about an individual. This would be a breach of Data Protection legislation if we were to do so. When this is the case, we will remove any personal details before publication and highlight where and why we have done so.
We aim, where possible, to publish information for at least the current and previous two financial years. When we review any document – e.g. our policies – to avoid confusion we will only publish the current version once it has been updated.
Where we hold the copyright on our published information, the information may be copied or reproduced without formal permission, provided that:
It is copied accurately
It is not used in a misleading context
The source of the material is identified
