Publication Scheme
The Freedom of Information Act also requires North Wales Police
to establish and maintain a publication scheme. This is designed to
inform members of the public about certain types of information
included under generic class headings.
It is our intention wherever possible to proactively publish
information on our Publication Scheme that the public have an
interest in viewing to develop a greater culture of openness.
This category of information is about our
organisation, it contains details of our structure, profiles of
senior officers and staff, our contact details and the locations of
our Police stations throughout the Force area.
This category details financial information
relating to projected and actual income and expenditure,
procurement procedures, contracts and financial audit
information.
This category of information concerns our plans, progress
against stated objectives, various statistical bulletins and
details of neighbourhood policing arrangements.
This category of information details our
decision making processes and provides records from senior decision
making meetings. These records are presented in the form of meeting
minutes and are provided under each respective department and
division. Information is also presented regarding feedback obtained
from public consultation and surveys we have obtained.
This category of information provides
details of our current policies and procedures for delivering our
services and responsibilities. Details of these policies are listed
under each department and division with ownership of the respective
policy or procedure. Information about current employment
opportunities within North Wales Police will also be provided.
This category of information provides
details from the various registers and lists North Wales Police
holds. This includes information from our Information Asset
Register prepared as part of the Management of Police Information
guidelines, Registers of Gifts/Hospitality and Business Interests
notified by Officers/Staff and also our previously published
Freedom of Information Responses.
The purpose of this category is to provide
advice and general guidance to members of the public on a variety
of topics.
Monthly force statistics.
This category has been added to reflect
North Wales Police’s commitment to accountability, openness and
transparency. It contains statistical data and general policing
information surrounding various topics which the organization is
ordinarily not obliged or required to provide but which North Wales
Police believe may be of benefit and interest to the wider
community.
