Tellmescotland is Scotland’s national public notice portal

Tellmescotland is Scotland’s national public notice portal, helping councils to publish all their public information notices (PINs) in one location online.

Developed by the Improvement Service, tellmescotland is currently used by Highland Council to publish information on planning applications. Users in the area can sign up to receive text or email notifications when new notices are published, meaning that the user does not need to search the council website for such information.

Tellmescotland makes it easier for the public to access information about their local area and also saves councils money which they would otherwise have to spend on advertising.

The platform has recently undergone an upgrade and is now supported by the mygovscot myaccount identity authentication and verification service. This improves security for users as well as streamlining the process for new and existing users who want to keep up to date with public notices from their local council.

Mygovscot myaccount is already used by almost 2.5 million people in Scotland to access a range of public services, including getyournec.scot and parentsportal.scot
