Police forces collaborate to save money

Devon and Cornwall police have announced plans for closer collaboration with the Dorset force, in response to continuing cuts in Government funding.

The two forces have agreed to set up a project team with a view to establishing a 'strategic alliance'.

They say the two forces have similar geography and a mix of urban and rural communities - and they hope that that by working together they can avoid further reductions in the service they provide.
