Firstly, it will help increase capacity, secondly it will assist crime prevention, thirdly we will enhance the support we offer to hard-working frontline police officers and staff. And finally, by ensuring system leaders provide national direction on performance, including through working more smartly, with the digitally enabled modern tools to police effectively.</p><p>However, it is for the individually elected PCC’s to determine how to allocate their resources as they are best placed to understand the needs of the communities they serve.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 26/02/2019 16:43:16 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd
