Please find below a statement from Lincoln’s Member of Parliament, Karl McCartney, regarding the news that G4S and Lincolnshire Police are to join forces in a historic partnership:
“With the Lincolnshire Police Authority, Lincolnshire Police have been leading our Country in a process that has now identified a successful private sector business partner, G4S, to work with them over the next decade to help transform policing in Britain. I believe this model will be the standard for the Country, and Lincoln and Lincolnshire will benefit greatly from this forward position. There may well be fewer police officers in future, but everything Lincolnshire Police are doing is designed to ensure that the front line service they provide does not suffer, and that every penny from taxpayers is spent wisely.”
