The motion
That this House welcomes Stephen Otter to his new post as Chief Constable of Devon and Cornwall Constabulary; notes his commitment to increase the confidence that the public have in their local police; recognises the vital support work of the 600 special constables; regrets the recent announcement that the force will be expected to cut its annual budget by £7 million in 2008; further regrets that the Home Office has reneged on its commitment to fund nearly 200 extra community support officers; and calls on the Government to deliver fair funding for police in Devon and Cornwall.
