Cyber crime unit

Derbyshire Constabulary did not have the information requested.

Kelsie Makepeace

Dear Derbyshire Constabulary,

I was hoping you would please be able to help me with some information that I require for my university independent research project.

I am researching into how the increase of cyber crime rates has influenced budgets given to the cyber crime/security units within different public bodies. Therefore, please can you inform me, where possible, what the budget has been for this unit within your organisation annually from 2006 onwards? In addition, if this budget has been used for anything substantial that year (for example the addition of a high tech crime lab or a specific cyber crime project etc) please could this information be included?

Thank you for your help, it is very much appreciated.

Yours faithfully,

Kelsie Makepeace

Freedom of Information Office, Derbyshire Constabulary

Good Morning Ms Makepeace,

 

I write in connection with your request for information as shown below.

 

I am researching into how the increase of cyber crime rates has influenced
budgets given to the cyber crime/security units within different public
bodies. Therefore, please can you inform me, where possible, what the
budget has been for this unit within your organisation annually from 2006
onwards? In addition, if this budget has been used for anything
substantial that year (for example the addition of a high tech crime lab
or a specific cyber crime project etc) please could this information be
included?

 

Your request will now be considered in accordance with the Freedom of
Information Act 2000 (the Act). You should expect to 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 Derbyshire Constabulary may be unable
to achieve this deadline. If this is likely you will be informed and given
a revised timescale at the earliest opportunity.

 

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 choose not to make 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.

 

Should you have any further enquiries concerning this matter, please write
or contact the Freedom of Information Officer, on the telephone number
below quoting the reference number shown in the header of this e-mail.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Fraser Shaw
