LETTER: Clearer vision?
I found the question and answer articles in the Herald very enlightening. It appears we now have a well-paid police and crime commissioner, plus a well-paid deputy commissioner. We still have eight full-time staff inherited from the Sussex Police Authority, and a fullt-ime chief executive, plus a full-time finance officer.
It will be interesting, at the end of the first year in office of the new police commissioner, if, in fact, there is an overall saving on the old system when adding up the cost of all of this.
