Data requests from public bodies

Requests from police and other public bodies for personal data under Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA) and Data Protection Act 2018 (DPA)

Police Officers

This page is for public bodies to request personal data to support their work. It is also to fulfill their obligations under Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act 2000 (RIPA).

Once your request is submitted, our Data and Information Governance team will verify your request and confirm next steps.

Please be aware, requests for downloaded CCTV footage must have a physical address with someone who will sign our form on receipt. Occasionally police station front desks are unwilling to sign for the footage, this impacts us greatly as it costs us money to obtain the footage, and we are a not-for-profit organisation.

To find out more about how we process these requests, see our Public Body Requests user guide (PDF, 650KB).
