Matt Baggott: il pacchetto finanziario è sufficiente
Policing package enough – Baggott
The chief constable has said that a financial package on offer for the devolution of policing and justice is sufficient for operational needs.
Speaking at a meeting of the Policing Board, Matt Baggott said he believed the money would enable police to deal with the dissident threat.
It would also be enough to address day-to-day policing needs, he added.
The first and deputy first minister negotiated the package with Gordon Brown after lengthy negotiations.
The overall amount is estimated to be around £1bn.
It contains a range of proposals including money to cover some of the likely cost of compensation claims by police officers suffering from hearing loss.
Money would also be made available to complete the construction of a new police training college.
Changes to financial rules would help to address around £101m of pressure on police pensions.
Sinn Fein want the devolution of policing and justice immediately while the DUP says it has a number of unresolved issues, including its desire to see the abolition of the parades commission.
