Final chance to make your voice heard on Police and Fire Funding

by  • 

North Yorkshire’s Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner, Zoë Metcalfe, is asking how much you think should be invested in local policing and fire and rescue services from your council tax bills from April this year.

One of Zoë’s roles, required by law, is to set the police and fire precepts – the amounts dedicated to policing and fire and rescue services in North Yorkshire and York from every household.

As part of her commitment to ensure everyone has the chance to have their say before the amounts are decided, she wants to know your views as part of a consultation. She will then make her proposals to the Police, Fire and Crime Panel in February.

The survey closes at midnight on Monday 16 January 2023, and can be completed at: www.tellCommissionerZoe.co.uk.

Alternatively the brief questionnaire can be downloaded here, printed and posted to the FREEPOST address on the form.

Details on the consultation and the proposals to be commented on can be found at https://www.northyorkshire-pfcc.gov.uk/how-can-we-help/your-say/consultations/2023-2024-precept-consultation/
