Public bodies have specific responsibilities under the Regulation of Lobbying Act. We outline some of them in our Requirements for Public Bodies.

We have also issued guidance and guidelines for information:

• List of Bodies with DPOs
• Information which Bodies with DPOs must publish
• Transparency Code
• Guidance note for Advisory Groups, Strategic Policy Committees and Working Groups

We have published a list of bodies which are considered “public service bodies” for the purposes of the Act.

The Designated Public Officials Regulations provide a schedule of the Departments and Agencies who have Designated Public Officials prescribed under section 6(1)(f) of the Act.
