HC Deb 07 July 1994 vol 246 c298W
28. Mr. Bayley

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement about community policing.

Mr. Charles Wardle

The aim of local management of policing is that the police provide the service which best meets the needs and wishes of the local community. Mutually supportive partnerships between the police and the public lead to successes in the prevention and detection of crime.
