Community Policing
(asked on 25th February 2016) - View Source
Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many police forces in England operate a neighbourhood policing model.
This question was answered on 1st March 2016
How neighbourhood policing is delivered, its priorities, and the specific model that is used, are decisions for Chief Constables in conjunction with their democratically accountable Police and Crime Commissioners. This Government believes in local policing, accountable to local communities. That is why we abolished all central Government targets and put local people in charge by introducing directly elected Police and Crime Commissioners.
