Warwickshire Police to raise Council Tax by £15 annually to fund improved policing.
在核准1.85亿英镑的供资计划之后,沃威克郡警察将从4月开始,每年平均增加15英镑的议会税收份额。
Warwickshire Police will raise its share of Council Tax by an average of £15 annually starting April, following approval of an £185 million funding plan.
增加的目的是改进反应时间,维持社区治安,加强调查,加强电话处理,同时节省200万英镑的效率。
The increase aims to improve response times, maintain neighbourhood policing, strengthen investigations, and enhance call-handling, while achieving over £2 million in efficiency savings.
警方刑侦专员Philip Seccombe表示, 警力是该国人均资金不足最多的单位,
Police and Crime Commissioner Philip Seccombe said the force is the most underfunded per capita in the country and that declining the rise would have forced deeper cuts.
这一决定是勉强作出的,旨在维持最近的改善,并满足公众对更快、更明显地维持治安的日益增长的需求。
The decision, made reluctantly, is intended to sustain recent improvements and meet growing public demand for faster, more visible policing.
