RE: Freedom Of Information Act 2000: Request for Information
I am writing in reply to your email, which was received in our office on
20/04/2009 relating to the number of people arrested for soliciting/kerb
crawling in 2008 plus the disposal. Our reference for the request is
2347/09.

Your request is being processed and you may expect a reply within 20
working days, which will be by 19/05/2009..
In some circumstances we may not be able to achieve this timescale, but if

RE: Freedom Of Information Act 2000 - Request for Information

Your request for information is currently being considered and I am
contacting you to inform you that we will be unable to meet the deadline
for a response as initially stated. The request is quite involved and will
take more time to complete.

I would therefore ask that I may extend the deadline for a further 20
working days from the initial timescale which will make the new date 17
June 2009, however we will respond as soon as we are in a position to do
so.

I hope this will be satisfactory and will not cause you undue
inconvenience.

Regards

Dear Mr Dewsbury

RE: FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT 2000 - REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

With reference to your email dated 20/04/2009 requesting information as
reproduced below;

1) How many people were arrested for soliciting prostitutes or kerb
crawling by Northamptonshire police in each month of 2008.

3) 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.

I can confirm that Northamptonshire Police holds the information requested
and I am attaching a table containing the statistics.

Northamptonshire Police provides a review and appeals procedure within the
terms of the Freedom of Information Act 2000. If you decide to make an
appeal and, having followed the full process you are still dissatisfied,
you will then have the right to direct your comments to the Information
Commissioner who will give due consideration to the matter. See Appendix
'a' attached.

I trust you find this information to be satisfactory but if you have any
further queries please do not hesitate to contact me.

Yours sincerely
