Policing Performance Committee - 11 October 2022

Date : 11 October 2022

Location : online


Productions - Performance

Productions received versus disposal rates are monitored closely to ensure the division does not breach capacity in our estate. Regardless of this, there are some areas of the estate which have been bordering on full capacity for some time. The division currently have a higher intake of productions in comparison to the number of disposals, thus our accumulation rate is too high. This has been an issue for some time, but has not been helped by COVID impact on court backlogs.  It has been identified by the project team who have used reform funding for the introduction of a disposal team to deal with historic summary cases.

Due to the increasing demand for space in relation to productions, the challenges single person stores bring, as well as issues with working environments, it has been identified a requirement to centralise stores and where possible, amalgamate smaller stores into larger ones.  This however requires investment in estate and the division have been working with the Estates team on an Estates Enablement Plan which looks at all aspects of the division, including Custody estate.
