Agenda item

The Panel considered a report of the Acting Police, Crime and Victims’ Commissioner which provided an update on performance against the Police, Crime and Victims’ Plan 2018-2023 (for copy see file of Minutes).

Councillor Hovvels thanked officers for the update, which was very comprehensive.  Councillor Boyes referred to the grading of the Constabulary as ‘outstanding’ at reducing and preventing crime in four f the PEEL inspections it had undergone.  He considered that this was due to the continued emphasis on neighbourhood policing and was pleased that the newly appointed Chief Constable, Jo Farrell, had stated that this was a key part of policing policy in the Constabulary.

Resolved:

That the report be noted.
