Report of the Chamberlain and the Commissioner of Police.

The Committee received a report of the Chamberlain and Commissioner of Police regarding the Medium Term Financial Plan

The Committee agreed that a breakfast workshop regarding the Medium Term Financial Plan would be welcome and Members should be given the opportunity to discuss the future of the City of London Police. Members noted that this was a period of great uncertainty for the Force in light of the review of the funding formula and the different kind of police work conducted by the City of London Police in comparison to other forces, focusing as it did on the physical and financial security of the businesses of the City. A Member also indicated that it may be time to reconsider an increase to the Business Rates Premium.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
