Just found this board while searching for something else and this is a really useful thread - I just hope I never need to use this information!
I wanted to add something about CCTV - we use CCTV at the company I work for and it records to a hard drive which is then wiped every 30 days. The images can be saved to disc for permanency but it has to be done within 30 days.
I would therefore put in your DPA requests as quickly as possible and make sure you follow up explaining urgency to whoever is dealing and really chase it.
