The Police and Crime Plan is a statutory document the Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) is required to produce under the Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011. It outlines their strategic direction for their term in office.
The Avon and Somerset PCC’s plan for 2016-21 sets out the Commissioner’s strategic priorities following consultation with you. They are:
The plan covers the period 1 October 2016 to 31st March 2021.
Since publication of the Plan, a number of key events have taken place that impact on its delivery and reset the context for the strategic direction set. In response to the key changes in the local and national environment, a Plan Addendum has been produced to reflect key information that those who read or implement aspects of the Plan should consider alongside it.
We consulted with you on what you consider are the priorities in your area. We received 1,915 responses on the consultation which has been used in this plan.
PCC Sue Mountstevens is determined to make the people of Avon and Somerset BE SAFE and FEEL SAFE.
