The Freedom of Information Act 2000 came into force on 1 January 2005. Under the Act, anybody may request information from a public authority which has functions in England, Wales and/or Northern Ireland. The Act gives applicants two statutory rights:

• To be told whether or not the public authority hold that information; and if so,
• To have that information communicated to them

Although the Kent & Medway Safety Camera Partnership does not qualify as a public authority, its member partners do. Therefore, in the interests of openness, the Partnership will act as much as possible like a public body in relation to the Act.

The Partnership's intention is to make available as much public interest information as possible via this website. Should the information that you are looking for not be contained within the website, please contact us in writing, either by email:

Communications & Promotions Officer communications@kmscp.org

Or by post:

Communications Office
Kent & Medway Safety Camera Partnership
Phoenix House
2-8 London Road
Maidstone
Kent
ME16 8PZ

And we will respond no later than 20 working days after receiving your request in accordance with the Act.

Please note:

• When requesting information, please include your name, address (email or postal) and telephone number, the information you would like to access and how you would like it provided (e.g. email or hardcopy - paper or CD, etc.)
• If the Partnership holds the information requested, we will provide it. If it does not hold the information we will do our best to assist by advising you which agency may hold it.
• Most information will be made available free of charge, however if a fee does apply in relation to a request, we will inform you in writing and release the information following receipt of payment.
• There may be occasions where information requested may not be able to be released in part or at all under the Act's agreed exemptions. This will be confirmed in writing in each instance.
• We will withhold personal information under the Data Protection Act 1998.
