The Kent Police and Crime Commissioner, Matthew Scott, has launched a survey to find out what the public would like the new Chief Constable to focus on. He’s also asking what qualities the he or she should have.
Mr. Scott’s annual policing survey also wants to know if residents have been a victim of crime and if they were, how they felt their cases were handled. The survey is anonymous and takes about 5 to 10 minutes to complete.
The results will influence the direction of the force after the new Chief Constable is appointed later this autumn. The current Chief Constable, Mr. Alan Pughsley will step down later this week.
Matthew Scott says,
“I believe it right we seek the views of Kent residents, not just to find out how well they believe the force is currently serving them, but what direction they think it should take in the future.
The survey is wide-ranging, but anonymous. I want to know how well victims of crime have been treated and whether they’re satisfied with the outcome of their case, but I also want to know what the public would like to see in a new leader.
Kent is an important large county, with both urban and rural challenges and borders with both London and Europe. I am looking for a candidate who can address all these things.”
Please take time to fill in the survey. (link now deleted as the survey is closed).
