Essex Police plans to make PCSOs redundant to save money

Hirst and Mr Harrington said they had been in conversation with the Home Office in a bid to secure a “fairer” funding deal, but to no avail.

“I’ve said repeatedly for the last few months that all I want is fair funding for a force that is already efficient,” added Mr Harrington.

“Our plans do, regrettably, impact our entire workforce in some way and whilst those plans are unpalatable on every level, I have tried my best to be fair to all.

“We all want more officers on our streets but these things can’t happen without the appropriate funding and sadly there is just not enough money in the pot.”
