Sussex Police’s own drones in the Gatwick drone incident
Dear Sussex Police,
This a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
The chief constable of Sussex Police told BBC Radio 4’s Today Programme on 29 December 2018 that police had received 115 reports of drone sightings, including 93 confirmed as coming from "credible people".
Of the 93 sightings from credible people, how many of these were sightings of Sussex Police’s own drones launched for the purposes of the investigation?
Yours faithfully,
Michael Richards

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.

Sussex Police are currently receiving a high volume of FOI requests at a time of reduced staffing levels to process them. Every effort is being made to comply with the statutory 20 working day response deadline but on occasions this may not be possible – we apologise for the inconvenience this may cause.
Yours sincerely
