Number of council-owned/operated CCTV cameras
Dear Greenwich Borough Council,
I am requesting the following information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. If any information is unavailable, exempt, or beyond time/cost limits, please disregard these and provide the rest.
The total number of council-owned/operated CCTV cameras as of 2024 within your local authority area (if information for 2024 is not yet available, please provide the most up-to-date numbers).
I do not need the location of these CCTV cameras, just a total number of CCTV cameras currently in operation within your local authority area.
Please let me know if you have any questions or require additional clarification.
Yours faithfully,
Jamie Dixon
