Signed (candidate) Date 2/8/17 Acknowledgements A thesis that takes over than 5 years to complete necessitates a long list of thanks. Firstly, thank you to my Supervisors, Adam and Stewart for their patience, counsel, and immeasurable expertise. This could not have happened without you. Secondly, thank you to the participants who gave up their time to assist in the conduct of this research. Again, this could not have happened without you. There are many other people, without whom it probably could have happened, but it would not have been as much fun. A thank you to my supportive family: to Dad (who would make an excellent Research Assistant) and Jan, for the distraction holidays, white wine spritzers, games and PCC newspaper cuttings; to Mum and David for the political distraction, dessert wine, and for being my MS Word helpline; to Katherine and Michael for the un-ending supply of gin, the dependable supply of a bed for the night, and the celebratory skiing holiday; and to Hanami, who has been an intelligent, beautiful, and hilarious, ray of light, in an often dark place. A thank you to the Cardiff University staff in SOCSI and LAWPL: Sharron, Sarah and Helen, who I am so lucky to have to support me; James Davey, a fantastic PGR Director; and the Criminology department at Cardiff for inspiring my interest in Criminology all those years ago, and for the enjoyable 2 years of teaching. A thank you also to the Criminology department of USW who have been so welcoming and accommodating over the last year. A thank to my friends, near and far: to Mark and Matt, co-creators of prosecco Tuesday; to Becca and Letty for 12 years of abstract humour, wonderfully distracting texts, and for letting me be the boss; to Cutler and Turner for the ‘unbeliezable’ over-exaggeration, and for putting me in my place when its needed; to Rob for unwittingly appealing to my competitive side; to Amy, Rob and the boys, and Gemma and Graeme for the skittles vodka, the long summer evenings, and your patience in me still being a student; to Paul and Jo for your unconditional support and patience in my absences; to Cat, Phil and Steve, for being the most wonderful spods and the best outcome of a bad situation; to the Harris and Collins families for always knowing I could do it; to all the PhD students in SOCSI and LAWPL, for the many hours spent in the Pen and Wig, particularly Holly and Lloyd, Zoe and Andrew, Mendez, Ruth, Jen, Ian, Jack, Manon, Lloyd, Matt, Alan, Rohit and Katie; and to James, a source of motivation, hilarity and adventure, all of which have been a much needed tonic. Abstract In 2012, Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) were elected in 41 police forces across England and Wales. This reform significantly changed the structure for police governance for the first time since the formalisation of the tripartite system in the Police Act 1964. Elected by the local public, with powers to set the police budget, hold the Chief Constable to account, create local policing strategies through public consultation, and allocate funding for community safety activities, PCCs were criticised as likely to have omnipotent power and potentially politicising the police. This theoretically driven thesis uses urban political analysis to identify the impact of these new actors on local community safety policy, specifically how the agenda is set in negotiation with other relevant actors, and the type of agenda that this negotiation produces. The multiple-embedded comparative case study design enables insight into the significance of the English and Welsh Context for PCCs, through the examination of two case study sites: Bristol, in Avon and Somerset, and Cardiff, in South Wales. Through the use of interviews, document analysis, observations and social media analysis, the impact of PCCs on local community safety agendas is evidenced to be limited due to their necessary operation within a policy network, in which other actors have community safety agenda-setting responsibilities, and resources to pursue these. The creation of PCCs’ agenda is reliant on local contingencies within the policy network, including PCCs’ claims to expertise and how they view their role, how other agencies engage with the new actor, and the local context of the case study site. This dependence on established agencies within the policy network, results in convergence of PCCs’ agendas, focused on risk management and situational crime prevention, favoured by local authorities in the era of austerity.

Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) carried out an inspection of all 43 police forces in England and Wales in Spring 2011, to see how they were planning to meet this financial challenge. When the results were published in July 2011 (search for ‘Valuing the Police’ on www.hmic.gov.uk), we committed to returning one year later to report on progress, and to assess whether there had been any impact on the service provided to the public.

  • HIGH LEVEL FRAUD Before Becoming the Police and Crime
    HIGH LEVEL FRAUD Before becoming the Police and Crime Commissioner for the Thames Valley, one of the UK’s largest police forces, I had served worldwide as an Army Officer, worked in intelligence and been a Managing Director of an aircraft manufacturing company with aircraft in 120 countries. I did not expect that as a PCC much would shock me, I was wrong. The scale of corruption within at least four major UK banks, aided and abetted by their legal advisors, auditors and accountants has been on a massive scale. Fraud is usually complicated, but the basics of this were simple. Profitable companies and farms with assets or loss making companies with assets that far exceeded their loans from a bank would be targeted. The company loans would be transferred to a branch that purported to specialise in company restructuring. Its sole purpose was to make as much money as possible for the bank and its corrupt managers by liquidating the company. They would grossly underestimate the value of the assets, sell them at far less than actual value, recoup the loan, share the profits of the resale at proper value amongst their cohorts and then go for the personal guarantees of the company owners. Often this would be done through documentation that had been altered and signatures forged. The bank would regain far more than the original loan and those that assisted made fortunes. The victims lost everything. The amount of money involved runs to over £100Bn. There has been little effort or enthusiasm by the many regulatory authorities, notably the Bank of England, the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to either stop these frauds or bring the perpetrators to justice.

  • People, Places and Policy
    People, Places and Policy Set within the context of UK devolution and constitutional change, People, Places and Policy offers important and interesting insights into ‘place-making’ and ‘locality-making’ in contemporary Wales. Combining policy research with policy-maker and stakeholder interviews at various spatial scales (local, regional, national), it examines the historical processes and working practices that have produced the complex political geography of Wales. This book looks at the economic, social and political geographies of Wales, which in the context of devolution and public service governance are hotly debated. It offers a novel ‘new localities’ theoretical framework for capturing the dynamics of locality-making, to go beyond the obsession with boundaries and coterminous geog- raphies expressed by policy-makers and politicians. Three localities – Heads of the Valleys (north of Cardiff), central and west coast regions (Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire and the former district of Montgomeryshire in Powys) and the A55 corridor (from Wrexham to Holyhead) – are discussed in detail to illustrate this and also reveal the geographical tensions of devolution in contemporary Wales. This book is an original statement on the making of contemporary Wales from the Wales Institute of Social and Economic Research, Data and Methods (WISERD) researchers. It deploys a novel ‘new localities’ theoretical framework and innovative mapping techniques to represent spatial patterns in data. This allows the timely uncovering of both unbounded and fuzzy relational policy geographies, and the more bounded administrative concerns, which come together to produce and reproduce over time Wales’ regional geography. The Open Access version of this book, available at www.tandfebooks.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives 3.0 license.

  • Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Panel Finds ‘Serious Error of Judgement’ on Part of Police and Crime Commissioner
    Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Panel finds ‘serious error of judgement’ on part of Police and Crime Commissioner Avon and Somerset Police and Crime Panel has found that Police and Crime Commissioner Sue Mountstevens demonstrated a serious error of judgement and breached her Code of Conduct by revealing the identity of a whistleblower to Chief Constable Nick Gargan, the person at the centre of misconduct allegations. As a result the Panel has today, Thursday 30th October, opted to publish its findings as a matter of public interest. The findings follow a complaint alleging that the Commissioner, having been notified that an individual had raised concerns about Mr Gargan’s conduct, revealed the identity of this person to Mr Gargan before he was suspended. The complainant stated that the Commissioner’s Office did not admit to the disclosure for several months and that the issue was compounded when their identity became known to several news agencies. Due to the serious nature of the complaint, the Panel was required to refer the matter to the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) who concluded that there were insufficient grounds to suspect that a criminal offence may have been committed. The IPCC referred the complaint back to the Panel for informal resolution. By law, the informal resolution process prohibits the Panel from investigating the complaint and limits its considerations to the personal conduct of the Commissioner. In light of this the Panel sought Home Office clarification which confirmed its limited powers to request documents and its full ability to call the Commissioner to answer questions from the Panel.
