Dear official information,
I have asked my insurance company to lodge the footage release request and had provided the police incident number for the accident and get them to provide a signed release form. I was under the expectation that a private OIA request for an incident of this nature was possible but will see what progress can be made
Yours sincerely,
Terry Gardiner
