Read the document and provide the required driver information using the method on your notice. A possible NIP timing issue does not remove the separate Section 172 duty. If service or the driver identity is disputed, seek advice promptly.
Identify your document and next step
No account or upload. Check the relevant date privately.
Protect the response deadline
- Check the addressee, response instructions and service date.
- Provide the required information by the deadline without guessing; obtain advice promptly if you cannot identify the driver.
- Keep the notice, envelope, response copy and proof of submission.
Can I respond online?
Wiltshire reports no online response facility in 2023, 2024 or 2025. That historical answer does not establish the position on every current notice. Follow the method and address printed on your paperwork.
Selected 2025 FOI finding
Wiltshire reported 619 NOIPs on Niche and 17,792 combined Super NOIPs in 2025. They are separate reported categories, not an established combined total. It also reported 848 failure to disclose driver details prosecutions.
Separate Niche and combined Super NOIP categories; overlap and system coverage unresolved
Counting limits and clarification status
Do not add the Niche and Super NOIP figures until overlap is clarified. Niche Section 172 and chaser counts must not be represented as force wide totals. Prosecutions are not convictions or MS90 endorsements. Nomination processing time is not captured.
Clarification outstanding: Confirm whether the two notice categories overlap, which systems each measure covers, and whether Niche Section 172 and chaser counts exclude Super NOIPs.
Clarification correspondence has been drafted but not sent. These figures are attributed disclosures, not a verified comparison between forces.
