TV Licence Search Warrant Applications GWENT & SOUTH WALES

The request was refused by HM Courts and Tribunals Service.

Dear Her Majesty’s Courts and Tribunals Service,

I am making this request under the terms of the Freedom of
Information Act 2000.

This request only relates to information held by GWENT & SOUTH WALES
Magistrates' Courts since 1st January 2011.

Please provide me with the following information:

1. The number of search warrant applications made by employees of
the BBC/TV Licensing/Capita Business Services Ltd in accordance
with Section 366 of the Communications Act 2003.
2. Of those applications, the number granted or refused.
3. Of those applications granted, the number with information laid
to the effect that detection/detector van evidence had been
(allegedly) obtained by the BBC/TV Licensing/Capita Business
Services Ltd.

HMCTS has previously released similar information (your ref:
FOI/86722) so I trust will have no problem doing the same again,
notwithstanding the BBC/TV Licensing's probable future attempts to
deter/hamper your efforts.

Yours faithfully,

Peter Adams

Weston, Bob (Gloucester),
