What policing functions should be delivered between forces acting collaboratively?
Here we present a list of policing areas where efficiencies might be gained by forces collaborating to provide those functions and services. However, in the present financial climate, any efficiencies gained should be ploughed back in order to protect frontline services. Air Support Units; Firearms Units; Dog Sections; Underwater Search; Public Order; Counter Terrorism; Training (this was collaborative until recently and we would welcome a return to regional collaborative training in certain capabilities); Collision Investigation; Traffic Management; Vehicle Fleet Procurement; Uniforms/Equipment; IT Support; HR/Payroll/Pension administration; Media and Communications; Control Rooms.
