Caroline,
You are not obliged to provide access unless the data subject provides you with information you would "reasonably require" to locate the data.
OK, this is open to the usual interpretation as previous replies show, but......
Several cameras?, recording 24hours?, tapes kept for 7 days.
- possibly several hundred hours of tape to search.
It would therefore seem reasonable to me that you require the data subject to provide further information.
e.g. locations, times, etc...
Personally I'd be surprised if OIC disagreed in these circumstances.
But if I were in your shoes I'd still ask them !!

We have now had our first SAR from a student who wants every bit of data we
hold (joy). He has also kindly sent us a fairly blurred 'photo, which he
expects us to use to identify images of him from CCTV footage and then
supply him with copies. The effort involved in this would be huge and the
accuracy questionable! Also we only keep tapes for 7 days (unless an
incident is reported) so what dates should we be looking at???
Do we really have to do this???
Would really appreciate any guidance from members of the list!
