Dear Ms Miucci

I write in connection with regards to your request received in this office
on 29^th April 2022.  I note you seek the following:

1. Does Cleveland Police have any plans to introduce facial recognition?

2. If so, please provide all information relating to those plans.

3. Does Cleveland Police have any plans to introduce retrospective facial
recognition?

4. If so, please provide all information relating to those plans.

At this stage Cleveland Police do not have any plans to introduce facial
recognition.

The Cleveland Police response to your request is unique and it should be
noted that Police Forces do not use generic systems or identical
procedures to capture and record data therefore responses from Cleveland
Police should not be used as a comparison with any other force response
you receive.

If you are not satisfied with this response or any actions taken in
dealing with your request, you have the right to request an independent
internal review of your case under our review procedure. The APP College
of Policing guidance states that a request for internal review should be
made within 20 working days of the date on this response or 40 working
days if extenuating circumstances to account for the delay can be
evidenced.

Yours sincerely

Miss S Smith
