EDM 1157: Thames Valley Police resources

That this House recognises the vital work carried out by police officers across the Thames Valley in reducing crime rates; expresses deep concern about structural changes in Newbury constituency that risk increasing crime rates through reduced local police presence; notes that the closure of Newbury custody suite necessitates officers traveling 20 miles to Reading, significantly reducing their presence on Newbury's streets; and calls on the Government to provide Thames Valley Police with adequate resources to ensure effective policing in Newbury.
