  6. I am writing to you in connection with applications recently made to the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) in Metherell v. Magic Living 2 Limited and Capital Homes Services Limited. I should emphasise that the LFB is not a party to these proceedings, and I am not aware of any mechanism by which it may become one. It has come to my attention that certain records that may be held by you would be relevant to issues that the Tribunal will need to determine, particularly regarding whether the conversion of Clayford House to flats was and is compliant with the Building Regulations in relation to fire safety. I would be therefore be extremely grateful if you could please provide any records that you can (redacted where necessary) relating to incidents occurring at, or attendances to, Clayford House, especially where they indicate any observations or recommendations relating to the fire safety of that building. If it is helpful, I believe this includes the incidents with the following numbers: * 142568-26082024 * 165857-30092024 * 003694-06012025 * 089837-22052025 * 106313-16062025 * 127198-11072025 * 162763-29082025 * 205634-01112025 * 235484-17122025 * 023946-07022026 I am conscious of the need to minimise the time and resources spent in responding to this request. At this stage, however, I would be grateful if any information could be provided on a no-cost basis. I would greatly appreciate any disclosure that you are able to make without charge. This request is made on a voluntary basis. However, I should inform you for completeness that the Tribunal has powers to require any person to provide evidence, or appear at a hearing, where necessary for issues to be determined. I very much hope to avoid the need for this. Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request.

  8. My questions concerns the information London Fire Brigade holds on policing joint operations. I am interested in what data is held and in what form, specifically any records of the authority's knowledge of or participation in enforcement actions, and any communications with the Home Office relating to immigration enforcement. For the avoidance of doubt, this is a question about data architecture and categories of data, rather than a request for the data itself. I am interested in the past five years.

    1. Where do you hold data on joint operations? Provide names and brief description of any case management systems or databases, and how records of communications with the police are stored.

    2. For each of the case management systems or databases relevant to Q1, please provide the names and a brief description of the different types of data that are stored. E.g. date of the joint operation, location of the joint operation, etc.

    3. If the data is held in a spreadsheet or table, what are the headings or categories? Please provide a brief description of what each heading means (unless self-evident: e.g. date).

    4. If there is a finite list of inputs under any heading, please provide the full list of the multiple-choice options. (e.g., a list of all the ways that businesses subject to raids are categorised in the case management system).

    5. What statistical information is compiled from the data held on policing operations? Please indicate where this information is routinely released and where it is kept for internal use.
