Inventory of Data

In June 2012 the Cabinet Office published the "Open Data White Paper - Unleashing the Potential", and the full version can be accessed via the Cabinet Office website.

In response to the White Paper, Hartlepool Borough Council have identified a number of datasets that have already been published on the Council's website and these are set out in the table below. For each dataset a handy hyperlink has been included which makes it easy to navigate to the correct piece of information.

The Inventory will be regularly reviewed and amended as more information becomes available.

All of the information included in the Inventory of Data can be used and re-used under the terms of the Open Government Licence, published by the National Archive - please familiarise yourself with the terms of the licence before re-using any of the data.
