Policing
Author: Great Britain. Parliament. House of Commons. Home Affairs Committee
Publisher: The Stationery Office
ISBN: 9780215555441
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
This report examines the proposal contained in the consultation paper "Policing in the 21st century: reconnecting police and the people" (Cm 7925, ISBN 9780101792523) for the introduction in England and Wales of elected Police and Crime Commissioners and the creation of Police and Crime Panels in each force area to scrutinise the Commissioners. The Commissioners would replace Police Authorities, and be responsible for holding Chief Constables to account. The first elections are scheduled for May 2012. Members of the Committee held widely differing views about the principle of elected Commissioners, but this inquiry seeks to determine how these proposals can best be delivered. The Committee believes there should be a cooling-off period of four years if a former senior police officer decides to stand as a Police and Crime Commissioner in the same area in which they have served. This restriction is necessary because otherwise they could be in the position of scrutinising decisions they had made while still in office. Commissioners should be responsible for the budget, staff, estate and other assets in their force area. Also recommended is a need for greater clarity on what is meant by operational independence: there is currently no statutory definition of operational independence and it should be defined in a written memorandum of understanding between the Home Secretary, Chief Constables and Police and Crime Commissioners. The Police and Crime Panels should be comprised primarily of elected representatives from Councils in the force area, but also of a significantly smaller number of independent members.

A Time for Heroes
Author: Frank Barnard
Publisher: Review
ISBN: 0755390199
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
War makes heroes of men, but at what price? Sure to enthral fans of Masters of the Air and Fall of Giants, A Time for Heroes is a magnificent, sweeping, three-generation historical epic encompassing both World Wars, about heroism, the romance of aviation and the conflict between fathers and sons. As the twentieth century dawns, Guv Sutro, against his father's will, becomes a pioneer of aviation, a fighter ace on the Western Front during the Great War and a record-breaker between the wars. From his first flight in a primitive glider over the fields of Sussex, helped by the dogged loyalty of his friend Stan Kemp, he charts his ruthless course to fame and adulation. But with the outbreak of World War Two 'the best of Old England' begins to crumble. Guv's son Tim is fighting a more covert war, desperate to shed the burden of his father's reputation, while Tim's childhood companion Will Kemp, the son Guv felt he deserved, is fighting heroically, against overwhelming odds, as a Spitfire pilot. The fates of the men are bound together in the monumental ambitions and terrible tragedies of an age of heroes. What readers are saying about A Time for Heroes 'A beautifully told epic of human love and error. A truly great read' 'Highly entertaining, with great action scenes and moments of gut-wrenching excitement. A very human novel, about people and strife, and survival in extreme circumstances that have universal resonances' '[Frank Barnard] is without doubt the Wilbur Smith of the skies'

Operations in Afghanistan
Author: Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Defence Committee
Publisher: The Stationery Office
ISBN: 9780215560599
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
This report looks at operations in Afghanistan since 2006 and makes further recommendations for the anticipated draw-down of forces. UK Forces were deployed in Helmand Province in Afghanistan for three years from 2006 without the necessary personnel, equipment or intelligence to succeed in their mission. Mistakes were made as a result of a failure in military and political coordination. The decision to move UK Armed Forces into the South of Afghanistan in early 2006 was not fully thought through. The Committee is concerned that the MoD did not anticipate that the presence of the Armed Forces in Helmand might stir up a hornets' nest, especially as much of the intelligence was contradictory. Senior military advisers should have drawn attention to the need for force levels to be sufficiently robust to cope with an unpredictable conflict. The Committee is disturbed that the Secretary of State was told that commanders on the ground were content with the support they were being given in Helmand when clearly they were not. After only a matter of months in Helmand, the nature of the UK Mission changed, with serious strategic implications. The MoD did not respond quickly enough to changes in Taliban tactics. The MoD should prioritise the protection of personnel. The Government's room for manoeuvre regarding the number of troops that could be withdrawn from Afghanistan as part of an immediate transition is necessarily limited. More emphasis needs to be placed on capacity building within the political system if long-term success is to be achieved.
