MERGER RUMOURS

Once again rumours are circulating ranging from the Force being taken over by the Home Office to the Metropolitan Police taking over the Underground Area.

We have been included in the review of all Forces within England and Wales but different criteria will be applied to us. For example treated as a Specialist Force with no size criteria. The Minister of State for Transport will have overall responsibility for any decisions that come out of the review not the Home Office.

As a Federation we have a series of meetings arranged with relevant Ministers to ensure the Force is protected from mergers.
