Publication scheme
The publication scheme is a guide to the information routinely published by the Authority. It is not a comprehensive list of documents but rather it is a description of the classes or types of information published.
Part A – introduction
- What is the role of the New Forest National Park Authority?

Part B – classes of information
- Who we are and what we do
- What we spend and how we spend it
- What our priorities are and how are we doing?
- How we make decisions
- Our policies and procedures

Part C – essential information about the scheme
Accessing information
- The information contained in each class will be available in a variety of formats through the Authority website, email, hard copy or by inspection at the offices of the New Forest National Park Authority by prior appointment.
- It is our aim to make as much information as possible available online. All major publications are published on online at the same time as hard copies. Other publications are added in a continuing development programme.
- There will be no charge for information in electronic format. However, it may be necessary to charge for hard copies of some documents (e.g. to cover part or all the cost of some printed publications, copying and postage costs). In such cases, you will have to pay any charges before the document is sent to you. Copying charges do vary, depending on the document concerned and officers will advise you of the fee on receiving your request – no charge will be made if copying and postal costs together are less than £10.
Information to be included at a later date
- At present, mapping data is not available through the website, although maps are available in printed format subject to Crown Copyright restrictions relating to Ordnance Survey data.
- Human Resources polices including those relating to recruitment and selection of staff, equal opportunities and health and safety.
Copyright
- All New Forest National Park Authority copyrights are reserved but material appropriately attributed may be reproduced for purposes of private study or research, with prior agreement.
