FOI 601-2024 / June 2024 / PCSOs
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST REFERENCE NO: FOI-601-2024
I write in connection with your request for information which was received on 26th June 2024 as follows:
I hear there are at any one time only two PCSOs on duty to cover the highest crime area of Nuneaton, Camp Hill, also that the two officers are required to cover Galley common area as well - Is this correct ?
Please find the Warwickshire police response set out below.

The exemption applicable to the information is:
Section 21 - Information Reasonably Accessible by Other Means
This is an Absolute, class based exemption.
