<h3>
What is a public record?</h3>
Records that are covered by Schedule 1 of the Public Records Act of 1958 (PRA) are considered Public Records. They are documents produced or acquired by the military forces, the NHS, the courts, and the executive agencies of government ministries. If they are Crown property, they also consist of the records of non-departmental public bodies (NDPBs).
There are some things that are expressly excluded, such birth, marriage, death, and adoption registers; documents that are entirely or mostly about Scottish matters; and the permanent collections of public record museums and galleries. The PRA also gives the Secretary of State the authority to order that a body's records be made public and to decide whether or not such documents are public.
