The Freedom of Information Act 2000 recognises
that members of the public have the right to know how public
services are organised and run, how much they cost and how decisions
are made. These rights are subject to some exemptions which have to
be taken into consideration before deciding what information it can
release.
Under the Data Protection Act 1998 you are entitled to access your
clinical records or any other personal information held about you.
You can contact the Practice Manager to arrange to do this. Charges
will be made for photocopies that may be required.
