Freedom of information

Melton City Council is required to make a wide range of documents available for public inspection. While every attempt is made to provide the documents you request, the Freedom of Information Act does have some limits on access.  The Freedom of Information Part II Statement sets out the type of information that Council has in its possession and how you can access this information.
