Police Community Support Officer Budget In Somerset (EDM2137)

Police Community Support Officer Budget In Somerset

EDM number 2137 in 2008-09, proposed by Jeremy Browne on 22/10/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Police.

That this House deplores the proposal by Conservative-controlled Somerset County Council to cut £129,000 from the budget for police community support officers from 1 April 2010; believes that the democratic process was not enhanced by the decision of the Conservatives to keep this policy secret in advance of the Somerset County Council elections in June 2009; further believes that there is considerable concern across Somerset about crime and anti-social behaviour; applauds the work of police community support officers; notes the success of neighbourhood policing at tackling crime and reassuring the public; and supports the Somerset Liberal Democrat campaign to prevent Conservative-controlled Somerset County Council cutting more than a quarter of the funding from the Police Community Support Officer budget next year.

This motion has been signed by a total of 15 MPs.
