Norfolk Police Authority announce the latest iteration of the Long Term Estates Strategy 06-Aug-09

Working with the professional estates staff in the Constabulary, the Capital Assets Committee have recently endorsed the 1st major update of the LTES launched back in 2004.  Following the appointment of Ian McPherson as its Chief Constable in December 2006, the Constabulary undertook a significant organisational review of its Estates Strategy. With the abolition of the former three Basic Command Units, the launch of the 52 Safer Neighbourhood Teams, and a smaller number of Response Policing Units, overseen by a single County Delivery Unit, the Authority revamped the guiding principles underlying the former Strategy, and the new Update reflects those changes.  Committee Chair, Lesley Jones, said “This is the next big step forward for the Authority in providing an appropriately modern, and sustainable estate that supports the police and essential support staff in delivering the best policing service for those that live in, work in, and visit Norfolk. I am confident that this will make our buildings fit to take us through the next 5 to 10 years with only modest adjustments along the way.”
