No sound recording facility is used in any public area. All recorded images will be kept for 30 days and are strictly controlled within the council procedures. Only authorised people will have access to the images.

Disclosure of CCTV images

CCTV images can be disclosed to:

Law enforcement agencies
Prosecution agencies
Relevant legal representatives
The media
People whose images have been recorded and retained

CCTV images will be disclosed for a number of reasons.

Images will be shared with law enforcement when the images recorded would assist in a criminal enquiry.

Images will be shared with the media where it is needed to identify a victim, witness or perpetrator in a criminal incident. The wishes of the victim of the incident will be taken into account. In all cases of media disclosure, the police will have discretion of disclosure.

Images will not be disclosed to the people included in instances where disclosure to the individual would impact criminal enquiries or criminal proceedings, or in instances where an individual has been unable to provide a time, place and date by which the data controller can conduct a data search.

In any instance where the individual making the request is unknown to the data controller then it is a requirement that the individual provides a suitable photograph of himself/herself so that an accurate identification of the individual can be made within the recorded data.

How to apply to see an image

If you are the subject on the image, you must make your request to the Information Governance Team.

In dealing with the application for disclosure the designated manager will consider, prior to any disclosure, whether the images of third parties are held under a duty of confidence (First and Sixth Data Protection Principle). In this instance the identities of other individuals whose identifying features appear within the recorded data will have their images blurred so as to protect their identity. The data controller can make a charge should this editing be required. Details of these costs will be notified to the applicant once the data controller has completed a successful data search.

Please try and supply a map highlighting the exact location, description of person (with clothing or vehicles involved, including registrations), date and approximate time.

Half an hour prior to and after the times given will also be checked to avoid any discrepancies.
