Request

Dear London Fire Brigade FOI Team, I recently submitted a Freedom of Information request but realised it may have been incorrectly worded. I would therefore like to clarify my request. I am requesting: - The number of fires attended by the London Fire Brigade involving e-scooters (both rental and privately owned) between 1 January 2022 and 1 August 2025. - The number of fires attended by the LFB involving e-bikes during the same period. - Any internal reports, briefing notes, or risk assessments prepared by the LFB concerning the safety of e-scooters or e-bikes (particularly relating to lithium-ion battery fires) since January 2022. - Any correspondence between the LFB and Transport for London (TfL), the Department for Transport (DfT), or e-scooter rental companies (Tier, Lime, Voi, Dott) relating to e-scooter or e-bike safety, since January 2022. Please treat this clarified version as superseding my earlier request. Thank you for your assistance.
