My request relates to how the mental health of your police officers is managed. Specifically, I would like the following information:
1. How many police officers have taken leave (of any length) due to anxiety, depression, PTSD, stress, or any other identified mental health condition. I would like these statistics broken down by month, between the period March 1st 2020 and today’s date. If data has not been collected up to and including today’s date, please provide me with data between the period March 1st 2020, and the latest date available.
2. A description of internal procedures the police force has in place in order to help and support police officers suffering from mental health conditions.
3. A description of any changes to internal procedures that the police force has made in order to help and support police officers suffering from mental health conditions since March 1st, 2020.
