Freedom of Information Requests, East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service

Dear Mr Todd,

I refer to your Freedom of Information Act request which was received by
East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service on 8 March 2021.

Request:

Please Provide a Full List of Your PDA's to Operational Incidents.

Eg; AFA Actuating, 1 Pump

Response:

East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service does hold this information but considers
that it is exempt under Section 24(1) National Security of the Freedom of
Information Act and it is, therefore, being withheld.

The Service considers that disclosure of this information could be used to
carry out acts of terrorism and may affect our ability to maintain
national security.   The public interest test in maintaining the exemption
has been given due consideration and the Service believes that the public
interest in safeguarding national security far outweighs the disclosure of
the information. 

We can confirm that East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service PDAs ensure
sufficient resources attend incidents in accordance with the Task Analysis
carried out for each incident type.  This is an agreed process involving
Health and Safety and Representative Bodies.

I hope this satisfies your request, however if you are unhappy with the
way in which your request has been handled, you can ask for a review by
writing to:

Mrs L Ridley

Assistant Director – Planning & Improvement

East Sussex Fire & Rescue Service Headquarters

Church Lane

Lewes

East Sussex BN7 2DZ

A request for an internal review should be submitted within two months of
the date of receipt of the response to your original enquiry.

If you remain dissatisfied with the handling of your request or complaint,
you have the right of appeal to the Information Commissioner at:

The Information Commissioner's Office

Wycliffe House

Water Lane

Wilmslow

Cheshire

SK9 5AF

Telephone: 0303 123 1113

website: [1]https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/
