Step 1: Check existing information sources
If you require information, as a first step we suggest that you check the following areas of our web site as it may have already been published.
- What's new - this is where we highlight new additions to our website
- Publications - this is where the Department's publications can be accessed
- Media Releases – media releases listed by date order
- Latest Research - here you will find the latest research projects undertaken by our Analytical Services Division and links to other sites that contain useful research and statistical information on DCMS sectors
- Publication Scheme – the FoI Act requires us to produce a Publication Scheme, where you will find links to various classes of information published by the Department
- Search our reference library – Our website has a reference library engine which should allow you to find anything on the site
- Our Sponsored Bodies – Sometimes the information you are looking for may not be available from us. Instead it may be available through one of more than sixty sponsored bodies.
Step 2: Make a FoI request
If you have still not found what you are looking for through the existing information sources, then you should make a
FoI request.
