Thank you for contacting the Force Disclosure Unit.
Due to an unprecedented increase in demand for disclosure requests it has
been agreed that the Force Disclosure Unit will only respond to statutory
disclosures (Right of Access / Disclosure to the Family Court / Freedom of
Information requests) for the foreseeable future. We will not be
responding to / or actioning general enquiries or insurance requests,
therefore you should re-direct your email accordingly.
Dear Jamie,
Our Ref: FOI 2023/405
Thank you for your request for information dated 6th April 2023 concerning crimes at UK airports. Your request will be considered under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
Your request will now be considered and you will receive a response within the statutory timescale of 20 working days as defined by the Act, subject to the information not being exempt or containing a reference to a third party. In some circumstances Wiltshire Police may be unable to achieve this deadline. If this is likely you will be informed and given a revised time-scale at the earliest opportunity.
Although every effort will be made to ensure a response is provided within statutory deadlines, due to current circumstances delays may be unavoidable. We apologise for any inconvenience and will endeavour to process your request as quickly as is practicable.
There may be a fee payable for the retrieval, collation and provision of the information you request. If this is the case you will be informed and the 20 working day timescale will be suspended until we receive payment from you. If you chose not to make a payment then your request will remain unanswered.
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.
Please note that we now publish all our Freedom of Information responses on our website under a disclosure log. This can be assessed here: https://www.wiltshire.police.uk/rqo/requ... if you are looking for a specific topic that might have already been answered.
