Lists and registers

UCL Publication Scheme

This section covers information contained only in current maintained lists and registers.

Any information we are currently legally required to hold in publicly available registers

The Data Protection Act 1998 requires UCL, as a data controller to provide the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) with details about the purposes by which the university processes personal information. This is known as notification, and the ICO keeps a register which is available to the public for inspection.

You can search the data protection public register for UCL's entry on line at Asset registers http://www.ico.gov.uk/what_we_cover/register_of_data_controllers.aspx

Details from all asset registers, covering some information from capital asset registers, including landholdings.

A request should be submitted in writing to: Freedom of Information Officer.
