4. Request received 15 January 2016
Could the finance department provide figures that show the impact of not having done this in years 1 and 2 of the PCCs term of office i.e.1. If the 1.99% precept had been implemented in Years 1 and 2 of the PCC term of office including the cumulative impact on the coming year?2 The cost saving recommendation of the former Chief Constable of joint control room. How many additional police officers 1 and 2 would have financed?3. At the time of the last election for the PCC we were briefed by the CC that a figure for PO below 1200 would not be viable for a stand-alone force even with the level of cooperative working. Is that still considered to be the case?4. Would therefore the proposed increase for 16/17 ensure we had a viable number of officers for a stand-alone force?
Response sent 12 February 2016
The Police and Crime Commissioner has considered your request for information and our response is below. This response is correct as of 12th February 2016.
1.The financial model used to produce the Medium Term Financial Plan has been used to calculate the impact of increasing the precept by 1.997% in both 2013-14 and 2014-15. The cumulative net additional income in year 2 would have been £745k (£331k in 13-14, and £414k in 14-15). 2.Suffolk’s share of the projected net savings from having a joint control room was £462k. Increasing the precept in years 1 and 2 would have provided funding for an additional 15 officers (15 officers at £50k each). 3 & 4. Policing has changed significantly since the last PCCs election in 2012. This was the same year that the activities and subsequent police investigation of Jimmy Savile began, widely regarded as the turning point for many previously undeclared allegations of sexual abuse to be brought to the attention of the police. Similarly other significant events, such as the Rotherham and Oxford enquiries into child sexual exploitation and the growth of cyber-related crime, have changed the modern demands placed upon policing.
In response to these changing demands Suffolk Constabulary has reviewed and redesigned its operating model and in turn attributed resources according to the needs of policing today and into the future. The Suffolk Local Policing Review has involved extensive research into the demands now placed upon the County’s policing resources, while taking into account the modernisation of technology and additional support provided through partnership and collaboration. It is with the benefit of this work that the new operating model is being introduced, to further develop Suffolk Constabulary as an effective and efficient police force for the future.

In this case, they would be entitled to a priority response and offered a needs assessment.
He also provide grants to organisations which support victims of serious sexual assault and domestic abuse and whilst these grants do not have specific outcomes related to stalking, victims of stalking could have been supported.

Q3. How have you publicised the Community Remedy to the general public?
Response sent 29 November 2016
During August 2014, the PCC invited comments on his proposals for his Community Remedy Document. The consultation was open to organisations and members of the public who wished to provide their views.
On 17 October 2014, PCC Decision 35-2014 – The Suffolk Community Remedy Document, was approved by the Police and Crime Commissioner and published on the PCC’s website. The Community Remedy Document comprises of the items listed at 1.8 of the Decision Paper:https://suffolk-pcc.gov.uk/key-info/decisions
Mediation and Victim-Led Restorative Justice, which form part of the Community Remedy are both services funded by the PCC, and these aspects are monitored.
There are currently no plans to revise the Community Remedy document.
