Thank you for your request for information received on 28 May
2020 concerning
Please could you provide me with the following information about crews of
appliances.
Number of crew per station (e.g. 9 Station X - 9 Firefighters, 2 Crew

This request is being handled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
 
It has become necessary to carry out a public interest test. This is where
needs to balance the public interest in disclosing the information against
the public interest in withholding it.
 
The Freedom of Information Act 2000 obliges us to respond to requests
promptly, and in any case no later than 20 working days after receiving
your request. However, we now need further time in which to consider the
public interest in disclosing the information.
 
We estimate that it will take an additional 20 days to take a decision on
where the balance of the public interest lies. Therefore, we will respond
to you by 23 July 2020.
 
 
Yours faithfully,
Zach White
