Dear Mr Jarman
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST REFERENCE NO: HC/00053/09
Your request for information under the Freedom of Information Act was received by the
Information Compliance Unit at Hampshire Constabulary on 7th January 2009. I note you
seek access to the following information:
• How many former officers of the Hampshire Constabulary are currently in
receipt of an injury award pension, as provided for in the Police Pensions
Regulations 1987 and the Police (Injury Benefit) Regulations 2006?
• Do you operate a policy of reducing an injury award pension to the lowest
permissible band when the former officer reaches the age of 65?
• In the years 2004 to 2008 inclusive, how many former officers’ injury award
pensions were reduced to the lowest banding upon the former officer reaching
the age of 65? (A total figure only is requested, but I have no objection if you
break the figures down by year)
• In the years 1987 to 2003 inclusive, how many former officers’ injury award
pensions were reduced to the lowest banding upon the former officer reaching
the age of 65? (A total figure only is requested, but I have no objection if you
break the figures down by year)
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
