Environmental Information Regulations 2004
The Environmental Information Regulations 2004 (EIR) were introduced to enable members of the public to have access to environmental information that West Midlands Police hold. Further details of the Regulations can be found on the Information Commissioner's website by following the link below

Fees & charging
Charging is at the discretion of the Force but must be reasonable. If a fee is required you will be informed how much you will have to pay and to whom along with a schedule of costs. On receipt of the payment we will give you the information.
The Force cannot make a charge to access any public registers or lists of environmental information; or to examine the information in person.
How long will it take?
We aim to provide the information requested within 20 working days. However, in circumstances where the information requested is particularly complex and voluminous the time limit can be extended by a further 20 working days. The requestor must be notified within the initial 20 working days and the Force must state when they believe they will be able to respond in full.
