Dear Mr Jarman,
Freedom of Information Act Request Reference N0.: FOI/095/09 I write in connection with your request for information, which was received by the Norfolk
Constabulary on the 10th of February 2009. I note you seek access to the following information:
1. How many former officers of the Norfolk 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?
2. 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?
3. 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)
4. 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)
5. In the years 2004 to 2008 inclusive, how many formal complaints have been made against
officers of ACPO rank in the Norfolk Constabulary regarding matters in any way connected
with the administration of reviews of police injury awards? (A total figure only is requested,
but I have no objection if you break the figure down by year)
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
10th March 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.
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,
Nina Bond Freedom of Information Department
