In Part Two, we indicate for each class of information whether the class includes chargeable information or not. In Part Three, our Publication List, we indicate which of the following charging regimes could apply.
Where a class does not contain chargeable information, this means that a single copy or print-out would be available free of charge, whereas requests for multiple copies or print-outs may attract a charge for retrieval, photocopying or postage purposes.
Free of charge on website — there is no charge made by us, although the user will, of course, have to meet any charges made by their Internet Service Provider and/or telephone company as well as any personal costs for printing, photocopying etc.
For those without access to the Internet, we will provide a single printout of an individual publication, as shown on the website, free of charge from the above contact address.
Chargeable on website — requests for multiple copies of publications or multiple printouts printed by the Policing Board from our website (where an individual does not have access to the internet) or for copies of archived material no longer available on the website will attract a charge.
In meeting requests, the first 30 pages will be free of charge. At the discretion of Policing Board officials, a charge of 10 pence per sheet will be made for each additional sheet. We will let you know the cost when we receive your request. The charge will be payable in advance and will also include postage and packaging.
Free of charge hard copy — indicates a leaflet, booklet or periodical which is published by the Policing Board without charge.
Where a publication has gone out of print and a photocopy of the publication is required, there will be no charge for that copy. Where more than one copy is requested however, a charge of 10 pence per page may be made at the discretion of Policing Board officials.
Chargeable hard copy — indicates a bound paper copy, cassette or other product charged as shown in our publication list.
Where a charge applies the cost and the reasons for levying such a charge will be made known to you. Any charge will be payable in advance.
