Subject: Freedom of Information request - Essex Casualty Reduction Board Information

Dear Essex Police,

I notice on the official website
http://www.drivingcasualtiesdown.org/pag...
that the speed camera partnership is supervised by a Casualty
Reduction Board,but unfortunately the site lacks detail.

QUOTE "The Essex Casualty Reduction Board (ECRB) is a high-level
performance management board that oversees the performance against
the relating to casualty reduction. The Board meets quarterly.

Membership of the Board comprises a member and / or lead officer
from each of the core partner organisations. The core partner
organisations currently include:

* Essex County Council
* Essex Police
* Essex County Fire and Rescue Service
* East of England Ambulance Service
* The Highways Agency"

PLEASE ADVISE of the names of the individuals who attended the last
meeting, which organisations they represented, and who chaired the
meeting.

PLEASE ADVISE how these individuals are appointed to the ECRB (how
they are nominated or voted in) and, as a "high-level performance
management board" what qualifications they have in the area of road
safety or management.

PLEASE ADVISE who is the main person responsible for understanding
and implementing the various Regulations issued by the Department
for Transport and ensuring that the correct signage and standards
are implemented.

PLEASE ADVISE of the dates of the last four Board meetings, and
advise if the minutes are available to the public in any way.

Thank you in anticipation,

Yours faithfully,

Dennis Fallon

In accordance with section 17 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA), this response serves as a formal notification of refusal of your request on the basis that Essex Police does not hold the information you seek access to.

Essex County Council would be the initial contact for queries as the current leading member of the Essex Casualty Reduction Partnership and I would suggest you address your request to them via this link: http://www.essexcc.gov.uk/vip8/ecc/ECCWe...

I hope this is of some use.
