Corporate performance, delivery and scrutiny board – 23 August 2016 - Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner North Yorkshire

Questions from the public

Question received from Mr Neil Wilby via e-mail:
“Today the theme of your Scrutiny Board is victims. You have delegated your Appropriate Authority powers under the Police Reform Act to a Detective Chief Inspector in the Professional Standards Unit of NYP. Twice in the last three working days that officer has lost his temper on the telephone with a rape victim. Is this the type of conduct that you condone as chief officer by an officer working specifically on your behalf?”

Watch and listen to the Board’s response:

Meeting overview

This meeting will look at how the police are progressing with Police and Crime Plan – Priority four – Improve Victim Care

In April 2015, the Police and Crime Commissioner took over responsibility for delivering victim services and set up Supporting Victims in North Yorkshire, a bespoke service specifically designed for victims in the county. The service is commissioned by the Commissioner and provides initial contact for some 2,000 victims each month, ensuring they can access the support that best meets their need. In addition, the Commissioner provides a range of specialist services for victims, including restorative justice, counselling services and personal adviser-led support for vulnerable and high-risk victims including victims of domestic abuse

The Objectives under ‘Improve victim care’ are:

Improve and expand services – 57% public support
Embed restorative justice – 21% public support
Tackle repeat victimisation – 53% public support
