TfL Ref: FOI-2881-2324
Thank you for your request received by Transport for London (TfL) on 10th November 2023 asking for information about ULEZ van operatives.
Your request has been considered in accordance with the requirements of the Freedom of Information Act and our information access policy.
Specifically you asked:
“Can you confirm what percentage of staff working on the mobile ULEZ traffic camera vans are SIA accredited. This is to include ALL staff that have worked on or supported/protected a ULEZ camera van since 29/823.”
I can confirm that we hold the information you require.
TfL has deployed mobile units as part of our extensive camera network to support the effective operation of the ULEZ scheme. Staff accompanying these vans are not necessarily operating in a security role. Rather, they may be in attendance as operatives of the vans or providing transport for those staff. Those staff do not require SIA accreditation. Where security personnel are used to support the vans they are all suitably licensed by the SIA.
If this is not the information you are looking for please do not hesitate to contact me.
Please see the attached information sheet for details of your right to appeal as well as information on copyright and what to do if you would like to re-use any of the information we have disclosed.
Yours sincerely,
David Wells FOI Case Officer FOI Case Management Team General Counsel Transport for London
