CCTV privacy impact assessments

CCTV throughout North Somerset undergoes an annual privacy impact assessment. The assessment makes sure that CCTV systems are being operated in accordance with the current legislation surrounding data protection. We also make sure they remain fit for the original purpose for which they were installed.

2024 Assessment

A Data Protection Privacy Assessment on all public space surveillance cameras were carried out on 15 January 2024

The assessment determined:

  • All public space CCTV cameras were assessed as fulfilling their original purpose and as detailed in the CCTV System Code of Practice (details on this page).

There were no complaints regarding the system since the last assessment (15 January 2023).

 View the CCTV System Code of Practice online on our Code of practice - CCTV webpage, or in hard copy in libraries or on request.
