  2. Freedom of Information request - 2005 Vehicle Fleet List

    I would like to request a fleet list of all vehicles owned and operated by the brigade during FY2005 (or the closest year for which records are available). If possible, please may these fleet lists include: - Vehicle make and model - The classification of the vehicle (e.g. DPL, FRU, ALP, HP) - The home station responsible for operating the vehicle - Any identifying numbers assigned to the vehicle, including both the vehicle's callsign and the fleet number often displayed on the bottom of the front door (e.g. DPL1234) As this information is not current, I believe that a public interest test would favour disclosure in relation to issues of security or commercial sensitivity. However, if any information is deemed to be exempt from disclosure, I would ask that this is redacted from documents, rather than the documents being withheld in full. I understand these are historical documents, so if records are no longer held, please direct me to an authority that holds this information if one exists.
