Youth Community Forums

Volume 456: debated on Friday 2 February 2007

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he plans to make a requirement on police authorities to hold regular youth community forums. (117553)

Section 96 of the Police Act places a duty on police authorities to obtain the views of the community on policing in their area. It is a matter for each police authority at a local level to decide how this duty is carried out. There are currently no plans to make a requirement on police authorities to hold regular youth community forums.
