Freedom of Information

The Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act came into force on 1 January 2005.  Museums Galleries Scotland is not currently included in the list of public authorities which are covered by the Act.  However, as we are committed to accountability and transparency in the way we work, we have made a policy decision to act, so far as possible, within the spirit of the Act.  Please note that the Scottish Information Commissioner has no remit over Museums Galleries Scotland in relation to Freedom of Information.

How to request information
