12.0 | Notices of Motion |
(i) Councillor R A Overton will propose the following Motion:- “Telford and Wrekin Council notes with concern West Mercia Police has been subjected to ruthless government cuts since 2010 • crime has increased by 35% (3,973 offences). This was almost twice the rate of increase in the number of recorded offences for England and Wales as a whole (18%). This Council notes with concern that, despite local police officers and leaders working hard, cuts to policing budgets by this government is letting down Telford and Wrekin residents. This Council also recognises that despite increases in council tax by the PCC for new police officers, there will be no new police officers on our streets in Telford & Wrekin. This Council is deeply alarmed that government cuts are putting our community at risk. We therefore call on Government to provide fair funding to West Mercia Police.” The Motion will be seconded by Councillor G C W Reynolds. “To help protect the most vulnerable in our society this Council calls for an end to any further reductions in Government grants to this Authority. Furthermore this Council requests our MPs to support this call, lobby the Government and vote against any further cuts.” The Motion will be seconded by Councillor P J Scott |
