Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary (HMIC) have today published a report how Staffordshire police legitimately keeps people safe and reduces crime and rated the Force as “Good”.
Matthew Ellis, Police and Crime Commissioner for Staffordshire said:
“Whilst there is always more to be done I welcome the HMIC view that Staffordshire Police is good at how it treats the people it serves whilst acting within the law and treating staff with fairness and respect. Without this the support that the public has for policing would not be possible.
“It is also positive that today’s HMIC report recognises the important role of the Ethics, Transparency and Audit Panels (ETAP) and the Safer Neighbourhood Panels (SNP). I would like to take this opportunity to thank the panels for their tremendous work engaging with the public and providing feedback and scrutiny on the effectiveness of policing in Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent.”
