Previous single Model Publication Schemes
Since 2011, the Scottish Information Commissioner has created a single Model Publication Scheme suitable for adoption by any public authority. Each year, the scheme is revised and updated, to ensure continued improvement and a new single model is published every year. Previous schemes are no longer available for adoption, but have been adopted and are in operation amongst a wide range of Scottish public authorities.
Previous sector-specific model schemes
These schemes are still in operation, but as they expire they will be replaced by the single Model Scheme.
