European or Japanese vehicles that the public are not likely to have seen?
3. If there are plans to reveal or purchase any such vehicles, could I please be provided
any conceptual artwork or imagery?
I also refer to your email dated 27 September 2023, in which you clarified your request:
Please only information regarding vehicles that Police have already purchased or committed
to purchasing, further information such as unit amounts, pricing, or other commercial data
wil not be relevant.
Response

Police has not purchased, committed to purchase, or is planning to reveal any other brands or
models of European or Japanese vehicles that the public is not likely to have seen before.
Police does not hold any information to support or respond to your request. Therefore, your
request has been refused under section 18(g) of the OIA, as the information is not held by Police.
If you are not satisfied with any aspect of the decisions made in this response you are entitled to
complain to the Office of the Ombudsman and seek an investigation and review.
