Police Officers Re-employed as Civilians in the Same Force

The request was partially successful.

Dear Derbyshire Constabulary,

Under FOI rules, please provide me with the following information:-

PART 1:
In the last 12 months, how many serving police officers including PCSOs have:

A) Taken early retirement
B) Been offered voluntary redundancy
C) Had to take involuntary redundancy
D) Been sacked / dismissed from the force

Should you feel that this information would take too long to compile and would therefore fall out of the FOI request terms due to cost, then please supply me with the following in place:-

E) How many serving police officers including PCSOs have left the force voluntarily or involuntarily in the past 12 months.

PART 2:
In the past 12 months, how many of those police officers comprising of categories A, B, C, D, E have been re-employed by the same force as 'civilians'. Where possible, please supply the official number from each category.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Mr Munce

I write in connection with your request for information as shown below.

Your request will now be considered in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the Act). You should expect to receive a response within the statutory timescale of 20 working days as defined by the Act, subject to the information not being exempt or containing a reference to a third party. In some circumstances Derbyshire Constabulary may be unable to achieve this deadline. If this is likely you will be informed and given a revised timescale at the earliest opportunity.

There may be a fee payable for the retrieval, collation and provision of the information you request. If this is the case you will be informed and the 20 working day timescale will be suspended until we receive payment from you. If you choose not to make payment then your request will remain unanswered.

Some requests may also require either full or partial transference to another public authority in order to answer your query in the fullest possible way. Again, you will be informed if this is the case.
