Quiz police chiefs in online chat

Members of the public have an opportunity to quiz Suffolk’s Chief Constable and Police and Crime Commissioner during an online discussion next week.

The two-hour chat will be hosted on Suffolk Constabulary’s website on Monday 25 April between 5.30pm and 7.30pm.

Residents will be able to contact Steve Jupp and Tim Passmore about any crime issues they have and question them about policing in the county.

Chief Constable Steve Jupp said: “I look forward to hearing from residents about the policing issues that affect them. Anyone who wants to express their concerns and tell us, and everyone taking part, what they think, will be most welcome. We have not been able to hold our usual public meetings, so we hope this live web chat will give people a chance to engage with us directly and raise any issues they have.”

Police and Crime Commissioner Tim Passmore said: “Having direct contact with the public is vital and helps me to represent the views of all the communities in Suffolk. I invite everyone to join in next Monday evening so we can answer their questions and gauge public opinions on a range of issues.”

The session between 5.30pm and 7.30pm on Monday 25 April will be hosted on the Suffolk Constabulary website www.suffolk.police.uk.
