Consultation process
In accordance with section 72(3) of the 2014 Act, the Council conducted a formal consultation over its proposal to extend the period for which its two existing PSPOs would have effect. The consultation ran from 18 September to 13 October 2023.
As required by the 2014 Act, the Council directed its consultation at:
· The Police and Crime Commissioner for Sussex
· Sussex Police
· Relevant community representatives
A report on the consultation, which showed consultees to be in favour of the two existing PSPOs being extended by three years, was submitted to the Director for consideration, who in turn shared it with Cllr Robinson, the Cabinet Member for community wellbeing. In light of the report and Cllr Robinson’s views on it, the Director decided to extend the two PSPOs for three years.
