Cumbria Police Authority - Policing Plan

The Policing Plan for Cumbria is published and available to view from today. This plan sets out the services the Chief Constable has agreed with the Police Authority to deliver for the people of Cumbria. The plan makes the best use of the people and money available to deliver a safer and stronger Cumbria.

Ray Cole, Police Authority Chairman said “The Police Authority works on behalf of everyone in Cumbria to make sure that your police force is effective at fighting crime and provides value for money.

“We set out in the plan how areas of concern for the public will be addressed working with partner agencies, such as burglary, antisocial behaviour, speeding and dangerous driving. The plan also identifies how we will continue to address other priority areas such as drugs trafficking and protecting vulnerable children and adults. In the current economic climate, reviewing and restructuring our organisation will also be a major focus for us.

“The continuing priority of the Police Authority will be to ensure the Constabulary maintains the highest possible standards of policing throughout the county, within the current greatly reduced budget.”

The Policing plan is available to view on the Police Authority Website www.cumbriapoliceauthority.org.uk and the Constabulary website the Constabulary website www.cumbria.police.uk
