last decade, or as far back as possible within this time frame.

How many units of vapes were seized in your local authority?

How many units of cigarette packs were seized in your local authority?

How many units of hand-rolled tobacco products were seized in your local
authority?

Could this data be presented annually for each of the below time periods?

These are as follows:

1st January 2023 > 31st Feb 2023

1st January 2022 > 31st Dec 2022

1st January 2021 > 31st Dec 2021

1st January 2020 > 31st Dec 2020

1st January 2019 > 31st Dec 2019

1st January 2018 > 31st Dec 2018

1st January 2011 > 31st Dec 2011

If you could send the information over in a csv or xlsx format, that would
be ideal.
