Disclosure Details
Two duties are placed on public authorities under Section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). Notwithstanding applicable exemptions, the first duty at, Section 1(1) (a), is to confirm or deny whether the information specified in a request is held. The second duty at, Section1 (1) (b), is to disclose information that has been confirmed as being held. Under the provisions of those sections of the FOIA, we can confirm that the information you seek is not held by the Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner for Gwent.

We hold the information on the following link but it doesn’t provide answers to the questions raised in the request and as this was a 2015 contract it is likely to have been updated since. This information is held by Gwent Police as they manage the procurement process for contracts made in the name of the Police and Crime Commissioner.
The OPCC and Gwent Police are two separate organisations, therefore, you may wish to contact Gwent Police directly to determine if they have any additional information via the following link https://gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gwent.police.uk%2Frqo%2Frequest%2Fri%2Frequest-information%2Frip%2Frequest-information-police%2F&data=04%7C01%7CNicola.Warren%40gwent.police.uk%7C1bf7caca4e5241057e0708da002bc87e%7Ce46c8472ef5d4b63bc744a60db42c371%7C0%7C0%7C637822485280199589%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=ePlYVJF79O8P52BtRs7w7wRcaon3cwZf4D762n8duec%3D&reserved=0
The Freedom of Information Act is a public disclosure regime, not a private regime. Any information disclosed under the Act is thereafter deemed to be in the public domain, and therefore freely available to the general public and will be published on the OPCC website.
