Lists and registers

Lists and registers

We would expect this to be information in currently maintained lists and registers only.

• Public registers and registers held as public records. If a deparment is required to maintain any register and make the information in it available for public inspection, the excisting provisions covering access will usually be adequate. However, we expect authorities to publicise which public records they hold, and how the information in them is made available to the public. Where registers contain personal information, departments must ensure that they consider the data protection principles.
• Asset registers and information asset register. We would not expect departments to publish all details from all asset registars. We would expect some information from capital asset registers to be availabel. If a department has prepared an information asset register for the re-use of Public Sector Information Regulations 2005, it should publish the contents.
• Disclosure logs. If a department produces a disclosure log  indicating the information provided in response to requests, it should readily be available. Disclosure logs are recommended as good practice.
• Register of gifts and hospitality
• Register of interest
• Other lists required by law.
