How deep should the footings be for a retaining wall?

How long should it be left to set before placing on the bricks?

I would go for 500mm to foundation base from low side and make the base about 750mm wide x 300mm deep. Youll need to start the brick wall at 330mm wide at the base then about 1/2 way up the wall step it into a 215mm wide wall.
Is the retaining wall near any other structures, roads etc?
