As the Information Commissioner’s office suggest
“The Freedom of Information Act 2000 provides public access to information held by public authorities.
It does this in two ways:
The Act does not give people access to their own personal data (information about themselves) such as their health records. If a member of the public wants to see information that a public authority holds about them, they should make a data protection subject access request. “What is the Freedom of Information Act? | ICO
We explain about a subject access request (SAR) as a separate policy.
The publication scheme commits an authority to proactively publish or otherwise make available as a matter of routine, information which is held by the authority and falls within the classifications below.
You can request our publication scheme leaflet at the surgery. We have brought together some of the information from our publication scheme which is on this website see under “regulation, oversight and support” in the “about us” section.
The Information Commissioner’s Office have a detailed and well set out description how to make a freedom of information request from any public body, including our surgery.
