Report of the Director of the Built Environment.

The Committee considered a report of the Director of the Built Environment that sought approval to the introduction of body worn video for use by Street Environment Officers (SEO) following a recent successful six month trial.

In response to a Member’s question, the Assistant Director of Cleansing Operations advised that following advice from Data Protection Officers the devices were constantly on but footage was wiped afterwards unless SEOs switched their devices to record, in which case footage was recorded from up to 30 seconds before activation.

RESOLVED – That the introduction of body worn video for use by SEOs be approved.
