Freedom
of Information
Part 1 / About
this Publication Scheme / Accessing the information
The purpose of our Scheme is to let you know what
information is readily available from us without your needing to
ask us for it. This means that the information is available on our
website (www.herts-police-authority.org.uk); can be obtained from
us in paper form if you request it by letter, e-mail or telephone;
can be purchased from us; or can be found in a local library. The
majority of information is also available on request in large print
and some information is available on request in a number of other
languages.
Part 2 of our Publications Scheme sets out the classes or types
of information that we publish or intend to publish, and whether
there will be a charge made for supplying the information.
Where a charge applies, the cost and the reasons
for levying such a charge will be made known to you. Any charge
will be payable in advance.
Documents fall into four categories:
Free on website
There will be no charge for this information, although you
will have to meet any charges made by your internet service provider
and/or telephone company as well as any additional printing or photocopying
costs.
If you do not have access to the website we will
provide a single printout of an individual publication, as shown
on the website, free of charge from the Authority’s contact
address (page 8).
Chargeable on website
You will be charged for requests for multiple copies of
publications, multiple printouts from our website or copies of archived
material no longer available on our website. The cost will be no
more than 10 per cent of the costs of responding to the request
plus any photocopying costs at 10p per sheet and postage at standard
rates. We will let you know the total cost when we receive the request.
The charge will be payable in advance.
Where the information is available via the website
but a value-added service is requested using that information, a
charge will be made in accordance with the above guidelines.

Data Protection
Act 1998
You are entitled to a copy of your personal data in its latest form.
If you wish to apply for access to your personal data you need to
make a ‘subject access request’ by writing to us at
the address on page 8. A fee of £10 must accompany your request
together with proof of your identity. We also need to be supplied
with the details needed to locate the information you seek. Your
request will be dealt with promptly and within 40 days of receipt
of the request and payment of the fee.
