As advised on FOI 2022-546 publicly available on our website NHS Shetland solely leases vehicles. So no vehicles have been sold during this period.
NHS Shetland vehicle fleet consists of:
24 MG MG4 150kW SE EV Long Range 64kWh 8 MG MG5 Electric Estate 115kW Excite EV 61kWh 1 MG MG5 115kW SE EV Long Range 61kWh 2 KIA e-NIRO Electric Estate 150kW 4+ 64kWh 1 Renault Zoe CDV ZE Electric 80kW Business 50kWh Rapid Charge i-Van R110 3 Suzuki Vitara Sz5 Boostjet Mhev Agrip Hybrid self-charging 1 Vauxhall e-Vivaro L2 3100 100kW Elite 75kWh H1 Van Auto 2021 1 Renault Master ZE LWB Electric Lm31 57KW Business Medium Roof Van 2 Renault Kangoo Business Ml20 I Ze 33 3 Vauxhall Movano Van L3 2 Citroen Berlingo 625 Bluehdi 2 Ford Transit Connect 210 Base Tdci 2 Vauxhall Combo 2000 Edition Td S/S 1 Ford Transit T350 L3 H2 Van In terms of the registration numbers of the fleet vehicles and in accordance with FOISA s 16(1), NHS Shetland confirms that it holds the information requested but that it is exempt from disclosure under FOISA s 35(1)(a) as disclosure would, or would be likely to, result in substantial prejudice to the prevention or detection of crime, and s 35(1)(d) as disclosure would, or would be likely to, result in substantial prejudice to the assessment or collection of any tax or duty.
In applying this exemption, we are not suggesting that the intention of this FOI request is to use the requested information fraudulently. However, NHS Shetland publishes all request responses on its public website and we have had previous experience of the fraudulent use of the vehicle number plates of fleet vehicles. Because of the costs incurred by NHS Shetland in resolving such matters, NHS Shetland considers that there is a greater public interest in withholding the requested information than in disclosing it.
