If the figures
are correct for West Midds, put simply ( I know its not that simple )
but over £3 million for 585 actioned calls is around £5,200 PER ( actioned ) CALL.
That's more than 4 times the amount West Mids used to charge
for Mutual Aid Air support to an outside force prior to NPAS !
Surely it can't go on much longer before my prediction comes true
and a Chief Constable / Police & Criime Commissioner somewhere
realises they could have their very own Air Support Unit, which would be
"More Efficient, and More Cost Effective" than NPAS ?
