Prevent Duty complaints
Dear National Police Chief's Council,
Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, I am requesting the following information:
1. the number of complaints made by people targeted by Prevent officers following a referral in the context of the Prevent Duty from 2015 to 2017 ;
2. the nature of such complaints (e.g. racism, distress);
2. the outcome of the above complaints and any further action taken;
3. any guidelines regulating the behaviour, approach and line of questioning of Prevent officers;
4. the details of Sussex Counter-Terrorism Local Profiles (CTLP) summary for 2017.
Yours faithfully,
Gianluca Avagnina
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST REFERENCE NUMBER: 00053/18
A Freedom of Information request has been received by the NPCC on
27/03/2018.
For the purposes of FOI, the NPCC respond to NaCTSO requests.
The NPCC is not yet a designated body covered by the terms of the Freedom
of Information legislation. Following the dissolution of the Association
of Chief Police Officers (ACPO), designation under the Freedom of
Information Act did not automatically transfer across to the National
Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC).
For these reasons it is important that you clearly understand that not
being bound by the legislation means that the NPCC cannot apply exemptions
to disclosure, engage the fees regulations and there is no recourse from
the applicant’s perspective to the Information Commissioner’s Office.
NPCC Acknowledgement:
It is the intention of the NPCC to comply with the spirit of the
legislation and I hope to be in a position to respond to your within the
statutory timescale of 20 working days subject to the provisions of the
Act.
In the unlikely event that the NPCC is unable to meet the 20 working day
deadline, you will be informed as soon as possible and given a revised
time-scale for response.
Kind regards.
