Subject Access Requests Under the Data Protection Act 2018

If you wish to know about the information the Council holds on you, you can make a subject access request to the Council. Such requests should be made in writing to the Data Protection Officer. The Council has one calendar month from the date of receipt with which to respond to the request.

The names of third parties, or data which could reveal the names of third parties, will be censored from the disclosed documents: the Council can withhold documents which mainly consist of such data. The Council shall not disclose documents which come within the exemptions of the Data Protection Act 2018, such as documents prepared for Council investigations.
