He said: \u201cWe want the City to be a vibrant, thriving destination and to bring more workers, visitors, and businesses here. As the engine of the nation\u2019s economy, we want to drive growth in financial and professional services at the local, national, and international levels. That is our contribution to this government\u2019s number one mission \u2013 economic growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Policing Plan sets out how the City Police will support this mission by protecting people and businesses from fraud, economic and cyber-crime, and by transforming the national response to these offences. In doing so it will combat crimes that have millions of victims a year, cause billions in financial losses, and which pose a real threat to our economic security\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>He told elected Members that \u201cthis plan is about reducing crime, protecting people and firms, and building trust with the communities we serve\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The three-year plan prioritises making the City of London Police one of the most inclusive and trusted police services in the country, cutting theft and violence, enhancing counter-terrorism measures, and making the City \u2013 already one of the world\u2019s safest business districts \u2013 even more secure. It also aims to boost community engagement and put victims at the heart of policing.<\/p>\n<p>Outlining the City of London Police\u2019s role as the UK\u2019s lead force for fraud, he said: \u201cFighting economic crime is not just about protecting individuals \u2013 it\u2019s about safeguarding the engine of the UK economy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFraud and cybercrime are real threats to our economic security. This plan shows how we will meet them head-on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr Broeke vowed that the City of London Police Authority Board will hold the City of London Police Commissioner and the police service\u2019s leadership to account for delivering the plan\u2019s outcomes over the next three years.<\/p>\n<p>You can read the Policing Plan <a href=\"https:\/\/gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cityoflondon.police.uk%2Fpolice-forces%2Fcity-of-london-police%2Fareas%2Fcity-of-london%2Fabout-us%2Fabout-us%2Fpolicing-plan%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7CChandni.Tanna%40cityoflondon.gov.uk%7C78d1656dcfcc4b57c63b08dd98a58188%7C9fe658cdb3cd405685193222ffa96be8%7C0%7C0%7C638834558796007675%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=%2FRPMfCWY4VkFr%2B9rBnJpeVWAyvpHAzJuOaL2wMwH%2BC0%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>ENDS<\/p>\n<p><strong>Notes for Editors:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>About the City of London Corporation:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The City of London Corporation is the governing body of the Square Mile, dedicated to a vibrant and thriving City, supporting a diverse and sustainable London within a globally successful UK. <a href=\"https:\/\/gbr01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cityoflondon.gov.uk%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7CChandni.Tanna%40cityoflondon.gov.uk%7C78d1656dcfcc4b57c63b08dd98a58188%7C9fe658cdb3cd405685193222ffa96be8%7C0%7C0%7C638834558796019751%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=mrvjtOCBvJ2Zvl497Nz5%2Buk%2Bpd0WY5OKpVUUzQri2mg%3D&amp;reserved=0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.cityoflondon.gov.uk<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Policing Plan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The City of London Police Authority Board\u2019s Policing Plan is the three-year strategic plan that sets out the priorities, objectives, and performance measures for the City of London Police.<\/p>\n<p>As the force\u2019s governing body, the City of London Police Authority Board is responsible for ensuring that the police deliver an effective, efficient, and community-focused service.
