Regulation 66 Requests for information under Article 6 of the Framework Decision for the purposes of criminal proceedings, other purposes and by a person

When information from the UK criminal record is requested for the purposes of criminal proceedings against a person or for any purposes other than criminal proceedings, the UK Central Authority may submit a request to the central authority of another member State for information and related data to be extracted from the criminal record, under Article 6(1) of the Framework Decision (request for information on convictions).

When a person asks for information on their own UK criminal record under Article 6(2) of the Framework Decision, the UK Central Authority may submit a request to the central authority of another member State for information and related data to be extracted from the criminal record of that member State, provided that the person concerned is or was a resident, or a national, of the United Kingdom or that other member State.

The UK Central Authority must submit the request using the form set out in the Annex to the Framework Decision.
