FOI 2023/24-034 - People Committee - charger plugs and chemical leak incidents

Category: FOI
Commitee: People Committee

Report Summary

Issued 20 September 2023, this FOI response provides information relating to two incidents referenced at the People Committee and explains why the Authority considers some of the information to be exempt under FOISA.


Request

The SPA People Committee agenda stated:

  • Following a further incident involving a charger plug malfunctioning, Police Scotland has informed the suppliers that it no longer has confidence in the devices. The suppliers have agreed to replace the VEO charger plugs with an alternative. 

 

  • CJSD recently reported a chemical leak linked to volatile chemicals that were being stored as productions. This resulted in a multi-agency incident. Following a Health and Safety investigation, a short life working group has been established with CBRN and CJSD to review the learning from this incident and consider any required policy changes.

Please send me all reports and correspondence pertaining to these incidents, and also on the previous incidents related to charge plugs.
