Visit to Ayrshire Division
On Thursday 2 March, I was joined by Jane Ryder, Vice Chair and Lynn Brown, Chief Executive on a visit to the Ayrshire divisional headquarters in Kilmarnock where we spent some time with the Divisional Commander, Chief Superintendent Faroque Hussain and his team.
This was a valuable and informative visit where we discussed a number of issues related to policing across north, east and south Ayrshire. The impact of the 2023-24 budget on the division and the level of demand stemming from mental health and vulnerability across Ayrshire communities was a key area of interest on our visit. I am grateful to the Divisional Commander and his team for taking the time to develop our understanding and insights into policing across Ayrshire.
