Both are keen that political representation on the Policing Board should be restored as soon as possible to ensure proper governance and accountability. I have also raised this issue with party leaders. We are exploring with them, the Department of Justice and others what can be done in the absence of the Executive. This again demonstrates why it is so important that devolved government is restored so that local people can oversee local policing issues.</p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 27/04/2018 11:37:52 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
