Hello,

I'm just about to apply for my Police checks in the UK, do I just go down to my local station and fill out a form?


Thanks

you can download them from your area police force

MRG175

Hi
Thats what we done, downloaded forms first from your local constabulary web site, fill them in and take 2 forms of photo ID.

I've checked online on the Durham Constabulary website and they don't have the forms.

Subject Access
The Subject Access provisions of the Data Protection Act give an individual the right to have a copy of any personal data held on them.

Section 7 of the Data Protection Act 1998 states that a "data subject" (the person about whom the personal data refers) is entitled, upon written request, to be informed whether or not personal data is held or processed about them.

Should you wish to know what information (if any) Durham Constabulary holds about you, or you would like confirmation that you do, or do not, have a prosecution/conviction history, you must complete a Subject Access form. Payment of a £10.00 fee and proof of identification must accompany a completed application form. Application forms are available from the:

Data Protection Office,
Durham Constabulary HQ
Aykley Heads
Durham
DH1 5TT

Telephone 0845 60 60 365
Alternatively, you can e-mail the Data Protection Officer at [email protected]

Please note that once we have received your completed application the process to provide you with information can take up to 40 days.
