Charges

Information you request under a subject access request is supplied free of charge.

If you make a request for further copies of the same information we may charge a reasonable fee to cover the cost of supplying this. The fee will be based on the administrative cost of providing the information and will be advised to you at the time of your request if this is relevant.

Time Period

Once we have received your application and consent form, we will respond within one month to provide the information you have requested. Very occasionally it may not be possible to comply within this time frame, but you will be informed if this is the case within one month of receipt of your request to explain why the extension is necessary. In order to avoid a delay, please specify the nature of the information you require on the application form.
