UPDATE ON CURRENT POLICE OPERATIONS

Meeting: 05/04/2017 - Safer Neighbourhood Board (Item 66)

UPDATE ON CURRENT POLICE OPERATIONS

To receive an update from Chief Inspector, Jenny Barnett.

 

Minutes:

Since the Westminister attacks, Hate Crime has been being monitored. Enfield has seen no increase in Hate Crimes. Five reported incidents of hate crime in Enfield are mostly connected with the Turkish Election. Additional police presence and aid has been required both in London City and locally.

 

From 8 May 2017, Officers will be responsible for anyone they arrest for the entire process. Other disposal options are being considered such as tickets, postal charges and arranging appointments for people to attend police stations. Having the same officer responsible for crimes throughout the process allows consistency for victims. It is hoped this will improve satisfaction for crime victims.

 

Further operations will take place on A10 to combat speeding.

 

ACTION:  Jenny Barnett to find out how many people have been caught using their phones whilst driving since the change in the law.
