Freedom of Information
The Freedom of Information Act gives rights of access to information held by public authorities such as Newcastle City Council.
Anyone can ask for access to information the council holds, but there are rules under the Act that mean certain types of information may be exempt from being supplied.
If you are unable to find the information you are looking for on our website, you may wish to make a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act.
Find out how on the Freedom of Information page on Newcastle City Council's website.
