Fleet Details - 1652/21

Date Responded 10 December 2021

Provision of information held by Northumbria Police made under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (the 'Act')

As you may be aware the purpose of the Act is to allow a general right of access to information held at the time of a request, by a Public Authority (including the Police), subject to certain limitations and exemptions.

You asked:

  1. Can you please give a list of the places do the Northumbria Police Vehicles go after Decommissioned or being auction?
  2. Can you please give a list of Car Dealerships that you purchase Vehicles from 1990-present to convert them into Northumbria Police Vehicles?

In Response:

  1. Disposal of fleet vehicles are by two routes depending on condition.  They are either sent for salvage or to Auction.  We hold no information at to the places they go after being auctioned.
  2. As per our previous response, records are not retained that far back as there is no requirement to do so.  I can advise that currently vehicles are purchased through national frameworks direct from manufacturer.

Disclaimer

Due to the different methods of recording information across 43 forces, a specific response from one constabulary should not be seen as an indication of what information could be supplied (within cost) by another. Systems used for recording these figures are not generic, nor are the procedures used locally in capturing the data. For this reason responses between forces may differ, and should not be used for comparative purposes.

The information we have supplied to you is likely to contain intellectual property rights of Northumbria Police. Your use of the information must be strictly in accordance with the Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 (as amended) or such other applicable legislation. In particular, you must not re-use this information for any commercial purpose.
