Police Transformation Fund 18-19 Transforming Forensics 067/2018 James Vaughan, Chief Constable, Dorset Police and SRO for the Transforming Forensics Programme reported the progress being made to determine the long-term delivery vehicle for the Forensic Capability Network. Acknowledging that the Programme had explored a range of options, the Board supported the Programme pursuing discussions with the National Crime Agency and the Home Office to ascertain if the NCA could provide a long- term sustainable solution. An alternative approach should also be considered in case this did prove unfeasible. In the interim, Dorset Police and the Police and Crime Commissioner for Dorset will continue to support this aspect of the Programme. Responsibility for the grant would move from West Yorkshire to Dorset. The Board asked the Programme to report back on progress and set a transition timetable for the long-term hosting and delivery arrangements to be in place by March 2020. Action Item 82 – The Chair of the Board and Chair of the NPCC to jointly write to the Transforming Forensics Programme reflecting the Board’s decision. Action Item 83 – The Transforming Forensic Programme to regular update the Specialist Capabilities Oversight Board with progress to achieve a delivery vehicle with transition achieved by March 2020. 068/2018 Specialist Capabilities Programme The Board considered and supported a proposal from the Specialist Capabilities Programme for additional in-year funding to support two tranches of work for the Specialist Capabilities Programme. The funding will support an extension of the scope of the data dashboards from the pilot forces to full national coverage. The second tranche of work, which will run concurrently with the first, will explore options for a national data function which will develop a business case for extending the dashboards to other capabilities and how they then operate on an ongoing basis. Action Item 84 - The Chair of the Board and Chair of the NPCC to jointly write to the 2 Programme reflecting the Board’s decision and sharing this correspondence with the Home Office to ensure that the recommendation is considered by the Policing Portfolio Board. National Enabling Programmes Two full business cases associated with the National Enabling Programmes (NEP) were reviewed by the Home Office Portfolio Investment and Change Committee (PIC) at their 069/2018 meeting held on 30 August 2018.

The Board noted the Executive Summary of the business cases provided in the agenda and that PIC has supported the programme thus enabling progress on procurements critical to 072/2018 the delivery of the Programme.

The Board agreed the revised portfolio management arrangements, subject to the 073/2018 development of an MOU and a review in 4 months.

  • An Update from the Association of Chief Police Officers
    An update from the Association Of Chief Police Officers January 2012 A word from ACPO President, Sir Hugh Orde There is no denying that 2011 was an extremely challenging year, and this year is shaping up to be no less challenging. There is a significant degree of ambiguity surrounding the future landscape of the service. Change is most certainly afoot and we must manage that change and make it work. It is the unenviable task of chief constables of balancing budgets, implementing reform, preparing for the future and for the unforeseen. I am therefore pleased to note both the Prime Minister and the Policing Minister’s praise for the steps we have taken to deliver efficiencies whilst mitigating the effect on front- line officers and at the same time still delivering a reduction in crime levels. We will continue to protect the public to the best of our ability with whatever resources at our disposal. For that is our job. Let us be under no illusions - there will be no let up in the pace of change over this coming year. The first Police and Crime Commissioners will be taking up their posts come the autumn; and we are already seeing the first candidates declare their intentions – with varying degrees of plausibility. The NPIA and its functions must be found new and appropriate homes by the end of the year. We must also now seriously consider what shape a professional body may take following the official announcement of its impending creation. There are both opportunities and potential pitfalls ahead and we, as the voice of the service, must ensure we steady the ship during these turbulent times.

  • Town Centres Action Plan
    Oadby and Wigston Town Centres Action Plan. Submissions by Michael Lambert on behalf of Leicestershire Police. This submission provides the following. 1] A statement from the Local Policing Unit about the impact of the evening economy on Police resoursing in the town centres. This is submitted for the Inspectors and Examination's consideration of the matter and to substantiate Police concern to ensure that the capacity of our infrastructures is considered alongside growth proposals in the AAP. 2] A statement in relation to AAP content, its status and likely interpretation. We make the case that omission of Policing Infrastructure undermines the Plan and will put us in an inferior position as regards securing funding for necessary additions to our infrastructures. The Council are invited to agree AAP content as Common Ground. 3] A statement in relation to NPPF content in the round and specifically about Plan making. We make the case that on a number of counts the AAP as current does not comply with NPPF in our view. Having said this the changes we believe are necessary are minor and can only add to the status of the Plan and its prospects for delivery and success. The Council are invited to agree AAP content as Common Ground. 4] Suggested wording to achieve NPPF compliance, strengthen the AAP, include Policing infrastructures and capture the commitment of both Authorities to monitor town centre crime levels as planned development takes place. 5] Conclusion Apendices. Town Centre crime maps. Police Infrastructure Plan for Oadby and Wigston. 1] Statement by LPU on the impact of the evening economy on Local Policing.
