Yesterday was a busy day for the Police Authority as we digested the draft report from the recent HMIC Inspection and debated the initial findings of the comprehensive force review.
The HMIC report is confidential in draft form so I can't say too much at the moment about this, but a useful hour or two was spent discussing their initial findings and how we respond before the final report is published. In some respects, this is all water under the bridge now that the new government has announced its intention to scrap Police Authorities completely (and to replace us with directly elected Police Commissioners) but we are fiercely proud of the work we do as a group and want the report to reflect our strengths (and weaknesses).
The force review also sparked considerable debate but the essence of the recommendations were accepted and we were all pleased to report that the process that has been followed was professional and very well done.
