In response to a previous FoI Request, BW confirmed on 27 February 2012 that information held by them on every boat, included “whether the boat was licensed or unlicensed” at any date of sighting. It also confirmed that for any boat that “has had any enforcement action taken against it, we hold copies of letters, S8 and/or S13 notices, patrol notices, photographs, internal/external emails.” That would include all reports made by the Patrol Officers which DO note whether the S8 notices were for sunk or abandoned boats OR for being “left or moored unlawfully”.<br /><br />[ http://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/personal_information_held#comment-28411 ]<br /><br />I’m glad you got something of value from the judgment – I have had to argue the ‘houseboat’ question at length both in this trial and the subsequent Appeal Court case. I did so from a different angle than your own of course, because it was important that ‘Gilgie’ was NOT classified as a ‘houseboat’ – but the same arguments are involved. <br /><br />Nigel Moore<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
