Consultation on new Police and Crime Plan

Suffolk’s Police and Crime Commissioner Tim Passmore is inviting Suffolk residents and businesses to have their say on the direction of policing in the county and the activity which will be taken forward by his office over the next four years. Suffolk’s Police and Crime Plan is now out for consultation in a draft form. It covers the four year period 2025-29 and is structured into three themes which focus on an efficient and effective police force; commissioning services which support victims of crime, and the PCC’s engagement with communities and his role in partnerships to enhance community safety and criminal justice. The survey is available on the PCC’s website https://suffolk-pcc.gov.uk/ Tim Passmore said: “As Police and Crime Commissioner, I am the link between local people and the police, and it is really important to me that everyone has the opportunity to be part of the direction I am setting for policing in Suffolk if they wish to do so. My aim is, and always has been, to make Suffolk a safer place in which to live, work, travel and invest. The survey is an opportunity for residents to express their views on the draft plan and I can assure everyone who takes part in the consultation, all their views and comments will be considered.” The Police and Crime Plan consultation will run until 9am on Monday 20 January 2025. Following the consultation, the plan will be updated and presented to the Police and Crime Panel in February for the consideration of its panel members before being adopted by March 31st 2025.
