A NEW survey has been commissioned to track public confidence in Essex Police and find out more about those who have been in contact with the force.
The survey, commissioned by Essex Police and police and crime commissioner Roger Hirst, will be undertaken by an independent market research company affiliated to the University of Hull.
The survey will provide a robust and in-depth assessment of public perceptions of policing across the county.
Mr Hirst said: “Increasing public confidence in policing is one of the main success measures in my Police and Crime Plan. The survey will help us identify where we need to make improvements, so the public of Essex receive the best possible policing service.”
The research company propose to undertake telephone surveys with around 7,700 Essex residents per year. The findings will be presented on a quarterly basis.
