MPS voluntary resignation and dismissals

Freedom of information request reference no: 01.FOI.23.034034

I note you seek access to the following information:

Please can you provide details of the officers who left the MPS by voluntary resignation (not transfers out) and dismissals between 2020 and 2023.
(Dismissals and voluntary resignations added together.)

I do not require separate info for each year 2020-2023. Cumulative figures will suffice.

Can this info be broken down/set out as follow re length of service bands:
a- Less than 6 months
b- 6 months to 2 years
c- 2 years to 5 years
e- 10 years and over Within each service band (a-e above) can this be further broken down to show the number of female leavers in that service band and the total number of females in the MPS within that service band.

Can the same be done for male officers leaving in each service band and the total number of male officers in that service band in the MPS.

Decision

I have today decided to disclose the located information to you in full.
