Dear Mr Dewsbury, 
 
Freedom of Information Act Request Reference N0.: FOI/225/09 
 
I write in connection with your request for information, which has been received by the Norfolk Constabulary.  
I note you seek access to the following information: 
 
1)  How many people were arrested for soliciting prostitutes or kerb 
      crawling by Norfolk Constabulary in each month of 2008. 
 
     2) 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 Freedom of Information Act (2000).  You will 
receive a response within the statutory timescale of 20 working days, as defined by the Act, subject to the 
information not being exempt or containing a reference to a third party.   
 
In advance of our response, I would like to point out that the Freedom of Information Act provides the public 
with a right to request access to recorded information held by the Constabulary.  If any of the information you 
have requested is not contained in a recorded format, the Constabulary is not obliged to create information 
for the purpose of responding to your request.  
 
We aim to respond to your request by the 19th May 2009. In some circumstances the Norfolk Constabulary 
may be unable to achieve this deadline.  If this is likely, you will be informed and given a revised timescale at 
the earliest opportunity. 
 
There may be a fee payable for the provision of the information you have requested.  If this is the case you 
will be informed, and the 20 working day timescale will be suspended until we receive payment from you.  If 
you chose not to make payment then your request will remain unanswered. 
 
 

---

 
Some requests may also require either full or partial transference to another public authority in order to 
answer your query in the fullest possible way.  Again, you will be informed if this is the case. 
 
 
Yours sincerely, 
 
 
 
Liz Collishaw 
Freedom of Information Department
