How will budget cuts affect Cumbria Police?

Cumbria Police Authority will be holding a Police Community Liaison Forum Meeting in January 2011, in Barrow focussing on the projected Police budget deficit in 2011-12 and the four-year period to 2014-15.

Cumbria Police Authority would like to invite members of the community to attend a Police Community Liaison Forum Meeting to be held on Thursday 13th January 2011, 7:00pm, in the Studio at Forum 28, Barrow.

Douglas Thomas, Cumbria Police Authority’s Treasurer, will provide information on the projected Police budget deficit, and the implications for Cumbria Constabulary.

Ray Cole, Cumbria Police Authority’s Chair, said: “Cumbria Police Authority are the Governing body for the Constabulary, we have a statutory duty to engage and find out the views from people within our communities. The Communilty Liaison Forums will provide the opportunity to discuss future budget implications, and to inform the public on what this actually means for Cumbria’s Policing service.

There will have to be some tough decisions made regarding the future Police budget, which will mean extremely demanding times ahead for Cumbria Constabulary”
