2021 Police and Crime Plan Survey
27th Sept 2021
TIME TO HAVE YOUR SAY – PCC LAUNCHES PUBLIC CONSULTATION ON A NEW POLICE AND CRIME PLAN
Every four years the Police and Crime Commissioner must decide the priorities for the Kent Police Force. To do that, Matthew Scott has launched a survey seeking your opinion on whether the Force is performing as it should and where you think resources should be focussed in the future.
It asks what type of crimes matter most to you: it asks about victim support and violent crime, as well as road safety and antisocial behaviour. It also asks whether you’ve been a victim of crime, whether as a victim you felt well looked after and whether you have installed your own security devices, like alarms and doorbell cameras.
The results of this survey will influence the Commissioner’s new Police and Crime Plan, which sets out the strategy for the police for the next three or four years.
The Commissioner Matthew Scott says,
“This is your chance to have your say on what is important to Kent, be it violent crime, antisocial behaviour, domestic abuse, traffic offences or supporting victims. I want to hear from you about the priorities I should be setting for Kent Police. The Police and Crime Plan is a really important document that will set the direction of our police force for the next few years, so it’s vital that you have your say.”
“Please visit our website and tell me what you think we could be doing better, or what you think we do well as well as what issues you think we should be focussed on. Your opinion does matter.”
The survey is anonymous and takes only a few minutes to complete. It is available online at : https://www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/PCC2021/ and on the home page of our website: Kent PCC: Office of the Kent Police and Crime Commissioner (kent-pcc.gov.uk)
Hard copies are also available, by contacting [email protected] or calling 01622 677055
Notes to Editors:
The new Police and Crime Plan will be published early next year and will determine the priorities for Kent Police. It will run until after the next PCC election, which will either be in 2024 or 2025.
