Is it possible to get the name of a police officer through their collar number?

Following a search of our paper and electronic records, I have established that the information requested is not held by the Office of the Northamptonshire Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner.

The Office of the Northamptonshire Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner (OPFCC) and Northamptonshire Police are two separate legal entities.
