The Official Secrets Acts 1911 - 1989

Gwent Police and Crime Panel did not have the information requested.

Dear Gwent Police and Crime Panel,

I am writing to respectfully make a request in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act 2000. My request is as follows:-

1) Please, can you provide a list of all employee roles who are employed by your authority and are subject to the provisions as set out in the Official Secrets Acts 1911-1989?

This can be provided in any format, however, a spreadsheet detailing each role and a mark as to whether the role requires the role holder to sign a declaration as to their recognition of being bound thus required to comply with the Act(s).

2) Please provide a disclosure of the format used by your authority which requires the signature of any role holder who is subject to provisions as set out in the Official Secrets Acts 1911-1989 such as an "Official Secrets Acts & Confidentiality Declaration"

If I am able to provide any further information in order to assist your search for information in order to successfully respond to this request, please do not hesitate to contact me.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Ryan Jarvis

Dear Mr Jarvis
I would like to inform you that the Gwent Police and Crime Panel do not
employ any staff. The Panel is an Independent Committee made up of 12
councillors from the Gwent area and two Independent Members. All of the
Councillor Panel members are nominated by each of the five local
authorities and they are then appointed by the Home Office. The two
Independent Members are selected by the councillor members and then have
to be approved by the Home Office. The panel members receive a small
attendance allowance and travel expenses for each meeting they attend and
they average five meetings per annum. Caerphilly County Borough Council
acts as host authority to support the panel and organise their meetings.
