Smoking and Vaping product seizures
See notes
I am submitting a Freedom of Information request. I am looking to receive information on the following questions broken down annually, back over the last decade, or as far back as possible within this time frame.
1. How many units of vapes were seized in your local authority?
2. How many units of cigarette packs were seized in your local authority?
3. How many units of hand-rolled tobacco products were seized in your local authority?
Could this data be presented annually for each of the below time periods? These are as follows:
1st January 2023 > 31st Feb 2023
1st January 2022 > 31st Dec 2022
1st January 2021 > 31st Dec 2021
1st January 2020 > 31st Dec 2020
1st January 2019 > 31st Dec 2019
1st January 2018 > 31st Dec 2018
1st January 2017 > 31st Dec 2017
1st January 2016 > 31st Dec 2016
1st January 2015 > 31st Dec 2015
1st January 2014 > 31st Dec 2014
1st January 2013 > 31st Dec 2013
1st January 2012 > 31st Dec 2012
1st January 2011 > 31st Dec 2011
1st January 2010 > 31st Dec 2010
We only hold records for 6 years in line with our GDPR policy and only since the Public Protection Partnership was formed.
We do not report on the actual number of packs of cigarettes/hand-rolling tobacco/vapes seized, the data is not stored in a readily accessible format (ie is not coded as such and it would require every service request and complaint to be read in full) and cross referenced with investigations therefore we are unable to retrieve it.
With regards to Wokingham Vapes - All years is zero
