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:
How many electric / e-scooters have been confiscated in your area between 01 January 2019 and 01 December 2021. Please can you provide the figures on a month-by-month basis for this time period.
Time period for data relating to the request: 01 January 2019 to 01 December 2021 please
In Response:
Following receipt of your request, searches were conducted with the Vehicle Recovery Department of Northumbria Police. I can confirm that the information you have requested is held in part by Northumbria Police.
I am able to disclose the located information to you as follows.
To note, as the vehicles have been seized under Powers set down under S165 a-c RTA we are taking it that your reference to ‘confiscated’ actually refers to seizures and therefore our response below is for those seizures.
