Is there a minimum legal requirement concerning the amount of DP information made available to our users before they submit their details?

There is no minimum or maximum amount of information to be given in a fair processing notice. The Information Commissioner has said that it should be kept simple and easy to understand - see the press release at:
http://www.ico.gov.uk/upload/documents/pressreleases/2005/dp%20forum%207%20june%2005.pdf

he also has an FAQ at:

http://www.ico.gov.uk/Global/faqs/data_protection_for_organisations.aspx on 'what do I need to put in my fair processing notice....' which basically states that you need to outline what and how you will process information.
