Police Community Support Officers: Medals
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of introducing a 20 years’ service medal for Police Community Support Officers.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
The Home Office will consider any proposal for national long service recognition for Police Community Support Officers (PCSOs).
It is only right that we recognise the commitment shown by PCSOs across the country and whose roles are undeniably at the sharp end of policing, diffusing community tensions and providing visible policing presence in our communities.
