The Re-use of Public Sector Information Regulations (RPSI) came into force on 1 July 2005 in response to a EU Directive. The regulations can be found by visiting the Opsi website. The regulations allow public sector bodies, such as Land Registry, to make their information available for re-use by anyone making a request in accordance with section 6 of these regulations. However, it is not compulsory for public sector bodies to allow re-use. The Freedom of Information Act (FOI) and the Environmental Information Regulations (EIR) are concerned with a citizen's right to access information. RPSI provides a framework to grant permission to individuals or to public or private entities to re-use that information. To find out more about Land Registry's policy on Freedom of Information visit our information rights section. Land Registry's Publication Scheme has been designed to let you know what information we make available or plan to make available throughout the course of our business. It is also designed to help you find and obtain the information that you require as quickly as possible. |
