From 31 March 2015 onwards, the Home Office replaced the \u2018old\u2019 functions framework with the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy\u2019s (CIPFA) Police Objective Analysis (POA) framework. The POA framework also includes a \u201cneighbourhood policing\u201d function although the two frameworks are not directly comparable.<\/p><p>Data on the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) police officers and Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs) in neighbourhood policing roles, collected under the CIPFA POA framework, in Devon and Cornwall, between 31 March 2015 and 2023, can be found in Tables F1 and F3 of the data tables accompanying each publication. The Home Office do not hold directly comparable data on the number of police officers and PCSOs employed in neighbourhood policing roles for years prior to 2015.<\/p><p>Table 1 shows the number of FTE police officers and PCSOs employed in neighbourhood policing roles in Devon and Cornwall between the 31 March 2015 and 2023. As at 31 March 2023, there were 264 FTE police officers employed in neighbourhood policing roles in Devon and Cornwall, an increase of 1.6% (4 FTE) compared to March 2015. The number of officers in neighbourhood policing roles had been declining between 2015 and 2018, when it reached a low of 220 FTE, before increasing year on year to levels seen in March 2015. Whilst the number of officers in neighbourhood police officers is similar to 2015, the proportion has decreased by 1.2 percentage points from 8.9% in 2015 to 7.7% in 2023.<\/p><p>As at 31 March 2023, there were 129 FTE PCSOs employed in neighbourhood policing roles, a decrease of 61.2% (204 FTE) compared to March 2015 when there were 333 FTE PCSOs employed in neighbourhood policing roles. Whilst the number of PCSOs has been declining, the proportion of PCSOs employed in neighbourhood policing roles has remained consistent.<\/p><p><strong>Table 1: Number and proportion of full-time equivalent police officers and PCSOs employed in neighbourhood policing roles, as at 31 March 2015 to 2023, Devon and Cornwall<\/strong><\/p><table><tbody><tr><td rowspan=\"2\"><p><strong>As at 31 March<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td colspan=\"2\"><p><strong>Police officers<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td colspan=\"2\"><p><strong>PCSOs<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p><strong>Number<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td><p><strong>Proportion (%)<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td><p><strong>Number<\/strong><\/p><\/td><td><p><strong>Proportion (%)<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2015<\/p><\/td><td><p>260<\/p><\/td><td><p>8.9<\/p><\/td><td><p>333<\/p><\/td><td><p>100.0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2016<\/p><\/td><td><p>240<\/p><\/td><td><p>8.4<\/p><\/td><td><p>339<\/p><\/td><td><p>100.0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2017<\/p><\/td><td><p>231<\/p><\/td><td><p>8.2<\/p><\/td><td><p>300<\/p><\/td><td><p>100.0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2018<\/p><\/td><td><p>220<\/p><\/td><td><p>7.7<\/p><\/td><td><p>245<\/p><\/td><td><p>100.0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2019<\/p><\/td><td><p>228<\/p><\/td><td><p>7.9<\/p><\/td><td><p>203<\/p><\/td><td><p>100.0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2020<\/p><\/td><td><p>228<\/p><\/td><td><p>7.7<\/p><\/td><td><p>189<\/p><\/td><td><p>100.0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2021<\/p><\/td><td><p>236<\/p><\/td><td><p>8.0<\/p><\/td><td><p>164<\/p><\/td><td><p>100.0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2022<\/p><\/td><td><p>253<\/p><\/td><td><p>7.9<\/p><\/td><td><p>154<\/p><\/td><td><p>99.4<\/p><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><p>2023<\/p><\/td><td><p>264<\/p><\/td><td><p>7.7<\/p><\/td><td><p>129<\/p><\/td><td><p>100.0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><p><strong><br> <\/strong>Some forces are not able to make a clear distinction between certain subfunctions and therefore record the majority of, or all, employees under one function.
