Earlier this month the Thames Valley CCTV Partnership went live, with the first control room in Milton Keynes. Building on the previous partnerships between local authorities and the police the vision of the new system being championed by Police & Crime Commissioner, Matthew Barber is to have a sustainable CCTV system to detect and deter crime and keep the public safe. Already the increase in CCTV operators has seen the police able to intervene in serious crimes as they are being committed.
