Illegal tobacco supply chain - 084/2021
This is a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act. I found that from 2019-2020, West Yorkshire Trading Standards referred 13 victims in the illegal tobacco supply chain to the NRM.

In light of this, I would like to be provided with the following information:
1) In the year 2020 how many NRM referrals did this police force make about victims involved in the illegal tobacco supply chain?
2) For each of these instances I would like to know:
• The date of referral
• Age of the victim
• Gender of the victim
• Any records which further detail the involvement of the victim in the illicit tobacco supply chain (e.g were they selling the tobacco).
• Their nationality
