NHS Walsall CCG is committed to meeting the statutory requirements of the FOI Act and has adopted the Information Commissioners Office’s (ICO) Model Publication Scheme.
The Publication Scheme is not an exhaustive list of all the types of information that we publish – our policy is to publish proactively as much information as we can where the information would have a wider public interest. The scheme does not include information that we consider to be sensitive, such as certain types of commercial or personal information.
The NHS Walsall CCG Publication Scheme is designed to signpost individuals to information we proactively release as and when it becomes available. The Publication Scheme contains seven classes of information, as follows, and information falling into each of these classes is published on our website:
- Who we are and what we do
- What we spend and how we spend it
- What are our priorities and how we are doing
- How we make decisions
- Our policies and procedures
- Lists and registers
- Services we offer
If you would like any information available in our Publication Scheme in other languages or formats, such as easy read or large print, then please contact us at walsallccg.cggcomms@nhs.net or call 01922 618388.
If you cannot find what you want through this scheme or otherwise on our website, you can find out how to make a Freedom of Information request here.

It is important that we follow national and local guidance on how we make our decisions on Commissioning (planning and funding) health and care so that you can access the best possible services. By following an agreed process we can ensure that our decisions are fair and transparent.
