Question about problems facing the police

Q) What do you think the major problems facing the police force in the 2 counties are? 

A) Without doubt one of the major problems is facing a reduction in budgets. Whilst it is inevitable that the country has to respond to the economic reality of the recession, it does present real challenges for all public services. So the main challenge is to sustain police contact with the general public, whilst ensuring that people are able to live peacefully and safely.
