  • EU or Swiss national identity photo-card
  • Valid UK photo-card driving licence (full or provisional)
  • Valid armed or police forces photographic identity card

Charges

You will not be charged for a copy of your records. However, the Practice can charge a “reasonable fee” when a request is manifestly unfounded or excessive, particularly if it is repetitive. We will therefore change a reasonable fee to comply with requests for further copies of the same information.
