The Mayor of Greater Lincolnshire has underscored the pressing need for addition of more officers in the region, pointing out a notable hold-up in recruitment which is disrupting improvement. She expressed, ‘The reality is that we are unable to enter into operational mode until we have these permanent positions, so as to recruit broadly for a functioning team’. This pronouncement is concurrent with local communities conveying increasing unease over safety and the conspicuous absence of police officers on the streets. The appeal for more officers is being reiterated by residents and local leaders together, all anxious to witness a bolstered police force competent in addressing communal concerns proficiently.
