Parish Council meeting

Last night was a Parish Council meeting.

We have a PSCO that we pay 50% of the cost - the other 50% met by the Home Office. Kent police are trying to get an agreement with us but they keep insisting that they have total control of the PSCO. The Parish Council does not have a problem with Kent Police having control over the day-to-day operations of the PSCO but the Parish Council does feel that it - as paymaster - should set the PSCO's priorities. Otherwise, we are just being taxed again for a Kent Police resource.

If Kent Police want total control, they should pay for the PSCO!
