Predictions were made by the Environment Agency that the sea would overtop the defences, so a ‘Severe Flood Warning’ was issued. A major operation swung into action – all properties in the area had to be visited and the residents advised of their options. The Special Constabulary was called to assist the local council officials and the Environment Agency workers as well as HM Coastguard Teams. As the evening went on, the wind got stronger and the sound of the waves crashing on Chesil beach became increasingly louder.

    Phone 0161 604 7711 Email [email protected] Rt Hon Mike Penning MP Via email 15 September 2015 Dear Mike, I am writing in response to the recently issued ‘Consultation on reform of police funding’. The outcome of this consultation is critical for the sustainability of the modern police service and one which we must get right. I did write to the Home Secretary on 24 July requesting further information and was disappointed not to receive a response or the requested exemplifications. This lack of information coupled with the short consultation time scales and the timing of the release over the summer, while Parliament is in recess, has prevented me from making an informed response thus undermining the consultation process. I would be grateful if you would consider issuing the exemplifications requested and re-starting the consultation process to allow for an informed and transparent exchange with those in the police service to take place. In the absence of exemplifications I have asked my office to calculate the potential impact of the proposed model on Greater Manchester Police using the data sources quoted in the consultation document. Our best estimates show that Greater Manchester Police would lose £52m (12.7%) per annum under the proposed model. Other police areas have estimated losses of up to 20% and, when coupled with the impact of the impending Spending Review, cuts at these levels could call in to question the viability of a sustainable policing service in Greater Manchester and other areas. Furthermore, I note that the combined impact of cuts that will impact on demand on policing from the Spending Review to the Home Office and other Government departments has not been addressed in these proposals.

  • Guidance on the Use of the Inherent Jurisdiction (Including Wardship) of the High Court to Protect Vulnerable Children
    Guidance on the use of the inherent jurisdiction (including wardship) of the High Court to protect vulnerable children This guidance note should be used where protection of vulnerable children cannot be achieved by other means. Including cases where the following or known or suspected • Radicalisation and risk of leaving the jurisdiction • Sexual exploitation • FGM • Forced marriage Other remedies already exist in relation to 2-4 and these should be considered first: 1 • *Sexual Risk Orders 2 • FGM protection orders • Forced Marriage Protection Orders *Sexual Risk Orders (SROs) are not the only protective order pursuant to the Sexual Offences Act 2003. The CPS, Chief Constable or National Crime Agency (NCA) can make these applications so it would be a matter for these organisations as to whether that would be progressed. 1 https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/442151/2015-07- 03_FINAL_Guidance_Part_2_SOA_2003.pdf 2 https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/416323/Fact_sheet_- _FGM_-_Act.pdf Guidance on the use of the inherent jurisdiction (including wardship) of the High 1 Court to protect vulnerable children – February 2016 v1_01 The Inherent Jurisdiction (IJ) of the High court enables the court to exercise wide ranging powers to protect individual children. It does not enable protection of a group of children, only those who are subject of the application. The court's wardship jurisdiction is part of and not separate from the court's inherent jurisdiction. The distinguishing characteristics of wardship are that – a) custody of a child who is a ward is vested in the court; and b) although day to day care and control of the ward is given to an individual or to a local authority, no important step can be taken in the child's life without the court's consent.

  • Wiltshire Police Chiefs Get Plain View of Crime and Security Issues
    Wiltshire police chiefs get Plain view of crime and security issues Wiltshire police chiefs got a bird’s eye view of Salisbury Plain Training Area (SPTA) as Defence Infrastructure Organisation (DIO) staff gave them the low-down on crime and security issues. Police and Crime Commissioner for Wiltshire Angus Macpherson and Assistant Chief Constable Steve Hedley, were given the rare opportunity of viewing the Plain from the air when they visited the training area. The visit gave Commander Defence Training Estate (DTE) South West Lt Col Mark Hiskett and his team the opportunity to discuss some of the issues and challenges around security, access and crime faced on SPTA and bordering Garrisons. Commenting on the visit, Lt Col Hiskett said: “DIO’s priority is to support our Armed Forces as they prepare for operations. We’re pleased to offer the Police and Crime Commissioner for Wiltshire and the Assistant Chief Constable the opportunity to see the exceptional military training facilities here at Salisbury Plain. “We also shared some of our prime safety and policing issues and I am confident that we will be able to work together in partnership with Wiltshire Constabulary to address these issues in the future.” He added that although DIO’s top priority was to meet military training needs, the organization also had a responsibility to ensure that the archaeological and historical value of Salisbury Plain was maintained. This meeting had enabled DIO to demonstrate its work managing the Plain sustainably. The day began with an introduction to DTE South West and SPTA by Lt Col Hiskett, followed by briefings on dry training, live firing, Garrison Policing issues and public access and security on the Plain.

The role of the PCC is to be the voice of the people and hold the police to account. PCCs are responsible for the totality of policing in their force area and aim to cut crime and deliver an effective and efficient police service. 39 PCCs are elected across England and Wales, of which 4 are also responsible for overseeing the fire and rescue authority for their area and are called Police, Fire and Crime Commissioners (PFCC) – these PFCCs are found in Essex, Staffordshire, North Yorkshire and Northamptonshire). There are also 3 Mayors with PCC functions elected in London, Greater Manchester and West Yorkshire. PCCs are elected by you and aim to cut crime and hold the force to account on behalf of the public. PCCs bring a public voice to policing, and they do this by: • engaging with the public and victims of crime to help set the policing priorities for the area and consulting on their Police and Crime plans; • ensuring the police force budget is spent where it matters most; and • appointing the Chief Constable, holding them to account for delivery of their objectives and if necessary, dismissing them.

I am sure the new force will be a worthy successor to its predecessor. I would like to thank the members of the former and new authorities for their support and the officers of the County and the former County Borough for their wholehearted co-operation. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen Your obedient servant J. C_ NIGHTINGALE Chiel' Constable 3 INTRODUCTION On 31 March 1974 the brief five year life of the Essex & Southend-on-Sea Joint Constabulary came to an end. On 1 April it was succeeded by the Essex Police which has precisely the same area of jurisdiction. All officers serving in the Joint Constabulary were transf~rred to the new force. The strength of the force increased by 52 during 1974, a smaller rate of growth than in recent years. This gives some cause for concern but present indications are that more recruits will be coming forward in 1975. During 1974 the crime rate increased by 20% over the previous year. This is the highest increase recorded in Essex in a single year but the problem is shared by other forces. It is difficult to be specific about causes; there seems to be some evidence of a collapse of social morality and a total lack of respect for authority but this is only speculation.
