How do I do a FOI ?

[Wendysfriend]

I did one years and years ago, don't even think the internet was invented then. I need to get medical records for my DD, it's mainly dates and procedures since she was born.

It says i can email but not sure where, who and will they give me my child's information

Ffffffs

You will need to get your id and your childs birthcert stamped and witnessed at a garda station along with the FOI letter. List of foi forms here :

This isn't a Freedom of Information request, this is a data subject access request.

Thank you both

I've never heard of SAR,

Will check both of those now, thanks again

@Wendysfriend do check what is applicable to the country/jurisdiction you are in as it maybe different from England.

This is in Craicnet, so likely the OP is looking for Irish information.
FOI could be the correct term!

@Wendysfriend see HSE.ie link above, not the .Co.uk one.

Edited: of course OP you could easily be in NI, so uk website could be correct too - apologies!

I had to get some medical results from a Dublin hospital through their subject access request process. If you google the hospital name and subject access request you might find the how to.
