Information and records management policy

Access

Because WHBC needs to ensure that decisions regarding access to records are documented so that they are consistent, and can be explained and referred to, Heads of Service must ensure that:

  • All employees are aware of the arrangements for allowing access to certain types of information
  • Procedures are in place to document decisions concerning access
  • Councillors are aware of access, security, data protection and freedom of information issues and abide by this policy at all times.
