Thank you for your request for Information, received at this office on 8

Police Officer Duties (response and administrative) 2009

Your request will now be considered and you will receive a response within
the statutory timescale of 20 working days as defined by the Act, subject

this deadline. If this is likely you will be informed and given a revised
time-scale at the earliest opportunity.

There may be a fee payable for the retrieval, collation and provision of
the information you request. 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 a 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.

We anticipate being able to provide you with information that you have
requested by 5 February 2010.

Dear Elaine/Samantha,

The clarification below seems to be helping other forces arrive at
the information, so I hope it will assist you.

By "Response Duty" we mean officers assigned to respond to calls
from the public, presumably those on shift duties, who would attend
calls from the public, such as beat officers, police vehicle
drivers, dog officers, traffic etc. (Inspector, Sergeant, PC)

By "Administerial" we mean those officers specifically assigned to
roles that are office based, such as audit, police administrative
roles that by virue of the job, mean that they work in an office
for their tour as opposed to responding to public calls."

Many Thanks
Steve Bennett
