Understand and deal with what matters to communities, respond promptly to incidents and work with partners to solve problems and prevent them from getting worse. This will mean that crime and ASB reduces, our roads are safer and confidence in Staffordshire Police increases.
The Commissioner will:
• Improve telephone and online 101 non-emergency services so that people contacting
Staffordshire Police receive a high-quality and timely response.
• Reduce the time taken to safely respond to emergency and non-urgent calls and ensure
the effective management of incidents.
• Promote awareness and use of the tools and powers available to prevent and resolve
ASB so that issues are quickly and effectively addressed by all those responsible.
• Build strong relationships with communities by focusing neighbourhood policing teams
on crime prevention and early intervention and by ensuring people can easily contact their
local police to raise concerns.
• Ensure police and partners take a problem-solving approach to drive down neighbourhood
crimes such as burglary, robbery and vehicle crime and to tackle business and rural crime,
all of which cause distress, disrupt communities and directly impact on livelihoods.
• Ensure the policing of our road and transport network is appropriately resourced and
assisted by the latest digital technology to help officers identify and apprehend offenders,
deter criminals and reduce casualties by tackling excessive speed, distracted driving,
drug or drink driving, unsafe and uninsured vehicles.
• Develop protocols for the application of expected new laws to tackle illegal trespass
where it causes distress, harm and disruption to local communities.
• Ensure that public protests are policed in a safe and impartial way which balances the rights
of individuals to protest against the rights of those whose activities are impacted upon.
