Thanks Richard. Devon and Cornwall were recently ordered to turn over theirs but they went to an appeal. I'm trying to find the results before I go back to Lancashire.

Richard. I see the Leeds FOI was to the council who have stated that there are other cameras operated by the police and not themselves.
The police operated camers were not disclosed in the response.
I assume then that the local councils in Lancashire are also using this equipment.
