How to request CCTV footage

You have the right to access images of yourself that may have been recorded by a CCTV camera system. This is because the Data Protection Act of 1998 means that public bodies like local councils need to make any personal data available to you if you request it. Personal data is information that relates to an individual and is held by the public body.

You will need to make a request in writing to the owner of the CCTV system. The details of the owner are usually written on a sign attached to the camera. You will need to give them enough information to identify you, for example a specific date and time, and a description of yourself and your clothing. They may charge you a fee of up to £10 for a copy of the footage.

If you contact a public body that holds CCTV footage of you, they must give you a copy of those images within 40 days. They may send you an edited version of the CCTV footage to protect the identities of other people shown in the footage.

How CCTV is used in the community : Directgov - Home and community

simple enough to find. unless you are spinning a yarn to fill web space. a phone call to the council from the area would have relieved the same response. oddly, the insurances company usually asks if there were cctv in the area, especially if the accounts of the accident differ, between the party's.(i have no idea is if this is universal, but it is common practice).

@gunner786 i await your next yarn with, barely concealed, anticipation.
