Hikvision CCTV camera use in Scottish Government buildings information: FOI release

Information requested

How many Hikvision CCTV cameras are still owned and operated by the Scottish Government and its public bodies?

Could you supply a full list of these?

Response

The answer to your question in relation to Scottish Government CCTV is that our CCTV system is in the process of being replaced over a multi-year programme across all of our sites and there are no Hikvision cameras currently operated by Scottish Government.

While our aim is to provide information whenever possible, in this instance the Scottish Government does not have some of the information you have requested. This is due to public bodies being responsible for procuring and operating their own CCTV systems.
