Data Protection and Freedom of Information

We see the introduction of the Data Protection Act and Freedom of Information Act as a welcome opportunity to improve both the ways we inform the public and the ways we manage the information we hold.

Freedom of Information

The Freedom of Information Act 2000 gives you right of access to information produced in the course of the council's work.

Information Sharing Protocol

Lambeth Overarching Information Sharing Protocol is a set of standards that our partners have agreed to follow when sharing personal information.
