PETITION TO THE MAYOR OF LONDON

The NURA Committee this evening approved a Petition for the re-opening of the 24/7 Front Desk at Uxbridge Police Station and for the removal of the threat of closure of this much needed facility.

At the Hillingdon Council Meeting on 12 September Councillor Douglas Mills proposed the following Motion –

‘That this Council welcomes the announcement by the Prime Minister, the Rt. Hon. Boris Johnson MP, that we need to increase the physical presence of Police to help tackle crime levels across the Country and that funding will be made available for the provision of an additional 20,000 Police Officers by 2022.

That, given that Hillingdon will have additional Police numbers who will require adequate operational facilities, this Council agrees that its offer to purchase Uxbridge Police Station for £5M, to enable continued use by local Officers, made in the 2018 Budget, should be re-made to the Mayor of London as soon as possible’.

The motion was approved.
