An agency might refuse access to or correction of a record as requested. In either case, a person can apply for a review of that decision. In the first instance, this is by application to the Chief Executive of the agency. After that, a matter then can be reviewed by the Ombudsman or, if concerning the police, the Police Complaints Authority. Should the matter still remain unresolved an appeal can then be made to the District Court. Alternatively, an applicant may make an application direct to the District Court with seeking a review by the Ombudsman or the Police Complaints Authority.
