FOI: Fires caused by vapes

The request was successful.

Dear Sir or Madam,

Under Freedom of Information, I would be very grateful if you could provide figures relating to fires caused by disposable e-cigarettes and vapes. I appreciate this may not be a category you record. It would be great if you could perform a free text search on "vape" and "e-cigarette" together with any other terms you think relevant. Please could you provide the information, split by the years 2020, 2021 and 2022.

Thanks very much

C D Johnson
