Freedom of Information request reference number: NY09727   

I write in connection with your request for information that was received by the York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority, Policing, Fire and Crime Team (PFC) on the 22nd June. 

Question/ Request:  

  • Where are the PCSOs? 
  • How many PCSOs work in Richmond? 
  • And could I ask how many hours of foot patrol does each PCSO do in the town a week, I would be surprised if it’s more than a few if any. By a total lack of presence. 
  • Do the PCSOS understand prime time key location patrols. If they do then again I never see a presence. 
  • Why are they not on patrol around our schools and in the town at these busy times and locations! 
  •  Maybe we can have a push to have recorded hours of foot patrol and locations patrolled and when. 
     

Answer/ Response:  

To locate the information relevant to your request searches were conducted within the PFC.    

I wish to advise you that there is no information held by the PFC in order to answer your request.
