Data Protection and Freedom of Information


Information padlockYou have the right to ask us for any information we hold, so long as it isn’t personal information about someone. We will make it available to you if we have it and there is no legal reason why we can’t. This is called Freedom of Information.

The Data Protection Act was introduced to protect personal data – that is data about individuals, no matter how it is processed, what it is processed for, or who processes it.

The pages in this section tell you how Freedom of Information and Data Protection work, and how you can make a request for information to us.
