Freedom of Information Disclosure Log

Today, 8 November 2019, I received a telephone call from a PS of Gwent police with reference to a statement made by me for Avon and Somerset police on 18 October 2019 but which was not forwarded to that force by a PC Was as agreed at the time and in the presence of a witness. She and her Sergeant PS subsequently decided without my knowledge or agreement to retain my statement and close the report as NFA (No Further Action). I was not made aware of this until today on receipt of a telephone call from Avon and Somerset received before the call fromthe PS informed me that Gwent police will not action or record any complaint I may make. I contribute to the police precept and therefore am entitled to service from any appropriate police force. 1. Please confirm and provide a copy of the relevant legislation/Home Office instruction, policy, procedure and/or requirement placed upon Gwent police which permits them to sabotage, interfere with, intercept and refuse to submit my statement so that Avon and Somerset are not in a position to investigate an offence committed in their force area. 2. Please also confirm and provide a copy of the Home Office document(s) which authorise such caveats placed on Home Office Counting Rules to the detriment of a person reporting crime

In Gwent I noted that in 2010 there were 148 Police Stations open. In 2017 there were just 73 open. Please would you let me know how many Police Stations are now open in 2019.

Can you please tell me the total spent on branded PCC merchandiseby the Office of the Police & Crime Commissionersince November 2012? Could you furthermore tell me how many branded items have been purchased, the type of items purchased and the amount spent per year?

I am a freelance journalist who writes about women and girls. I am researching the National Ugly Mugs (NUM) scheme and asking each PCC: 1. Do you provide funding towards NUM? 2. If yes, how much was the financial contribution for the last financial year?

I quote from your response: 'The OPCC are aware of your request for a copy of the body worn video that you have submitted to Gwent Police as you have copied the Police and Crime Commissioner into your emails. As a result, we have requested and received an update from Gwent Police as to the action they have taken and why they have taken it. As mentioned previously we are not able to influence the outcome of your request but understand that the correct processes have been followed' 1. Please provide an unredacted copy of the update supplied to you to whichJR refers. 2. Please provide a copy, with explanation and reference to relevant legislation, of the 'correct processes' that were followed by Gwent Police, since they have overridden my rights under the Data Protection Act.

How many times did the PCC/Mayor write directly to the former Prime Minister Rt Hon Theresa May MP during her time in office both as prime minister and Home Secretary for the following reasons: A: Raising concerns that budget cuts were having a detrimental effect on policing B: Requested more money?

I have received a Notice of Intended Prosecution from Safety Camera Unit, Pontypridd. I will be replying with my driving details. I would like to know what the speed limit in place was, on the M4, jnc 23a to jnc 24 westbound, Gwent 503, on 12/08/19. My husband and I were going to holiday to cardiff, and I clearly remember there were temporary marking along the route showing different speed limits.

Can you please tell me how many complaints, either formal or informal, via email or written letter, have been received by the OPCC within the two years (1st August 2017 - 15th August 2019) with regards poor* management within Gwent Police's Data Management Department/Information Services team? *Poor management should be taken to mean any expression, indication or concern that the department is not running as efficiently as would be expected.

I am conducting research into the implications for communities of the College of Policing policy to ensure all entrants into Police Forces as Constables have obtained or will obtain a degree. I understand that the Chief Constable of Lincolnshire Police has submitted a Judicial Review claiming it will cost his Force the equivalent of 40 Officers. Therefore it seems reasonable to assume that all Police Forces/PCCs have undertaken the same research. Can you please confirm :

1. There is a written record that your Force has considered the implications of this Policy.
2. The contents of this record, in terms of whom was present and the decision and
3. What are the implications for the Force in terms of abstractions ( equivalent Officers per day) if this Policy is introduced?

1. Do you have a backlog of Subject Access Requests, i.e. Subject Access Requests that have been received but have not been completed within the statutory time limit of one month.

3. Out of the figure provided in response to question 2 above can you provide details of how many of the overdue Subject Access Requests are:
   1. Up to one month overdue
   2. Over one month overdue
