Police Accountability - Capita Conferences announce details of their National Conference

Aug. 17, 2010 - PRLog -- Police Accountability taking place on Tuesday, 23 November 2010 - Central London

“We need police forces that […] are better able to deal with the crime and anti-social behaviour that blights people’s lives, but which are much more accountable to the public they serve.”
The Coalition: Our Programme for Government

The Government has indicated that there will be significant changes in the way the police operate and are held to account. With this in mind, Capita’s National Police Accountability Conference explores the changing relationship between the police, Whitehall and the public and provides an ideal opportunity to discuss what these transformations will mean for you.

The introduction of measures such as directly elected individuals and the increasing importance of beat meetings are intended to ensure that the public holds the police to account and plays a vital role in measuring performance.

There are a number of challenges facing police forces looking to prioritise accountability in the midst of great structural change and reduced budgets. This conference comes at a crucial time to address the most pressing issues, including:

• Putting responsibility for performance at a local level
• What is meant by providing value for money and how this relates to  performance and accountability
• The importance of developing partnerships across the community
• An overview of how the roles of particular agencies that hold police to account are set to change

Attend this event to ensure that you understand how accountability will be measured under the Coalition Government and how this will ultimately lead to safer communities.
