CCTV code of practice

We operate a number of CCTV cameras in retail areas/car parks in Lichfield and Burntwood in partnership with Three Spires Shopping centre.

We also have CCTV systems at the council house and our depot. Our waste and streetscene vehicles are fitted with CCTV cameras. Our environmental health officers may wear CCTV cameras. We may use fly tipping surveillance cameras.

We comply with the government’s surveillance camera code of practice which is detailed in our CCTV code of practice, which describes why and how we use CCTV systems.

Our code was adopted in February 2019.
