As Police and Crime Commissioner I pledge to address the diverse needs of North Wales by prioritising the following: Ensuring that North Wales Police have a minimal drain on their resources and costs when involved with the blanket Welsh Government 20mph policy but continue to collaborate with partner agencies and the voluntary sector for safer roads.

Full statement

Support for our Farmers combating rural crimes such as fly tipping, theft of livestock, equipment along with offerings my support against the detrimental actions of the Welsh Government towards the rural community.



Anti-social behaviour by using a common-sense approach to restore lost respect for our North Wales Police force by ensuring that Residents can see, and have access Police Officers in their Local Communities, Schools, and other public places more readily than they do now. This will reduce the unacceptable levels of anti-social behaviour that we currently experience.

Domestic Abuse and violence which will include coercive behaviour. This will be a priority in my Police and Crime Plan.

Online Cybercrimes i.e. Abuse/hate crimes along with fraud and scams by ensuring up to date technology is available.

Organised crime groups in relation to county lines, child sexual exploitation through a coordinated approach with other police forces and the National Crime Agency.

Formal coordinated Shoplifting policy between the Police and Major Retailers.

Every one of you is important to me and to recognise this I will hold regular surgeries throughout the Region to ensure that I am working FOR you and more importantly WITH you to make North Wales a safer place for all our Residents and visitors
