28 July 2010 to 06 September 2010

Come along to one of our summer road shows to tell the Authority where would you make savings in the police force. We will be going around the county visiting town centres and shopping centres. So why not join us and cast your vote!

Kent Police Authority will be hitting shopping centres countywide, to ask the public if you were the budget holder, where you would make savings in the police force.

Shoppers will be asked to vote on the following that have been identified as potential areas of interest. The below categories will be put to the test:



·    Emergency response teams e.g. the patrol cars that respond to an emergency call
·    Back office - police civilian staff
·    Back office – police officers
·    Neighbourhood policing e.g. local police constables and police community support officers
·    999 call handlers
·    Investigations
·    Specialist tactical policing units e.g. firearms, dogs unit, marine unit

 
The summer road shows will run from 28 July to 6 September and will give members of the public a chance to meet with Authority members and local police constable and police community support officers.
