HC Deb 29 October 1987 vol 121 cc417-8W
Mr. Cohen

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what is his Department's policy towards fees for subject access under the terms of the Data Protection Act; how many register entries his Department has; and what would be the total cost to a data subject seeking access to personal data held under all register entries.

Mr. Rifkind

A fee of £10 per registry entry has been set for access under section 21 of the Data Protection Act 1984; there are at present 72 register entries for the Scottish Office; the total cost to a data subject for access to all register entries would therefore be £720.
