Access to personal information

Leitrim PPN tries to be as open as it can be in terms of giving people access to their personal information. Individuals can find out if we hold any personal information by making a ‘subject access request’ under the current legislation governing such requests in Ireland. If we do hold information about you we will:

  • give you a description of it;
  • tell you why we are holding it;
  • tell you who it could be disclosed to; and if the information can be proven to relate to you.
  • let you have a copy of the information in an intelligible form.
