Following the announcement by the Metropolitan Police that they are to offer a £5,000 cash incentive to police officers transferring from other forces, I have joined with Police & Crime Commissioners from across the South East to condemn the move.

Police & Crime Commissioner for Thames Valley, Matthew Barber, has today (31 May) published the findings of an independent review of the work to reduce reoffending across Thames Valley.

The 999 Performance Data which was released today as part of the Government’s Beating Crime Plan details the time it takes for forces to answer 999 calls.  Thames Valley Police answered 83% of 999 calls in under 10 seconds.

Six members of an organised crime group (OCG) have today (20/5) been sentenced to a total of 74 years in prison after they were convicted of a string of ATM thefts, commercial burglaries and other serious offences across the Thames Valley and the southeast of England.

Residents of Thames Valley are being asked to take a few minutes to tell police chiefs about their experiences of the 101 and 999 services, as well as preferences for future modes of contact.
