Dear Ms Dewsbury 
 
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST REFERENCE NO: HC/01383/09 
Your request for information under the Freedom of Information Act was received by the 
Information Compliance Unit at Hampshire Constabulary on April 20th 2009. I note you seek 
access to the following information: 
 
•  How many people were arrested for soliciting prostitutes or kerb crawling by 
Hampshire Constabulary in each month of 2008. 
•  Of those arrested in each month the number who were: 
a)  released without charge 
b) cautioned 
c) charged 
d) fined 
e)  If none of the above can be applied to each arrest I would like 
to know how the crime was dealt with. 
 
Your request will now be considered in accordance with the legislation and you will receive 
a response within the statutory timescale of 20 working days, subject to the provisions of the 
Act.  In the unlikely event that Hampshire Constabulary is unable to meet the 20 working 
day deadline, you will be informed as soon as possible and given a revised time-scale for 
response. 
 
To be accepted, any clarification(s) to your request must be submitted in writing directly to 
the FOI Team at Hampshire Constabulary.  If your request requires either full or partial 
transference to another public authority, you will be informed.  Should you have any further 
inquiries concerning this matter, please write or contact Rebecca Shepherd on telephone 
number 01962 814789 quoting the reference number above. 
 
Yours sincerely 
 
Rebecca Shepherd 
Freedom of Information Officer
