Performance & Efficiency
Scrutinising and monitoring police performance
It is the police authority's job to hold the chief constable and force to account,
on behalf of local people, for the policing services delivered. Accordingly, one
of the police authority's most important duties is to closely monitor and scrutinise
all aspects of force performance, by setting standards and targets to improve
local policing services; and ensure that action is taken to remedy weak or poor
performance.
Producing a three-year strategic plan
Police authorities are responsible for producing three-year strategic plans which
set out the authority's medium and long-term strategies for the policing of the
area. The plan is drafted by the chief officer of the force following consultation
with local communities and submitted to the authority for approval. Ownership
of the plan rests with the police authority. The three-year plan should be consistent
with the National Policing Plan which is issued by the Home Secretary and reflects
the current national policing priorities of neighbourhood policing, workforce
modernisation and improving the quality of service.
Publishing an Annual Policing
The Annual Policing plan sets out how the community will be policed in the year
ahead. As with the three year strategic plan, this is drafted by the chief constable
and the authority must consult him / her about any changes to the draft. But public
accountability requires that ownership of the plan rests with the police authority.
To inform this process police authorities are required to:
-
engage with local communities about their policing concerns and priorities - this is a wide ranging and on-going process
-
set key objectives, performance measures and targets both for local priorities and those set by the Home Secretary
-
fully understand the business of policing
Participating in local Crime and Disorder Reduction Partnerships
Police authorities, along with chief constables, local authorities, health authorities
and the probation service all contribute to local crime and disorder reduction
partnerships. The partnership and relevant partners are co-responsible for producing
a three year strategy to tackle local crime and drugs issues. The local strategies
contribute to the development of the wider local policing plan.
