ONE wonders whether the latest initiative being forced onto Bromsgrove's overworked police, whereby they have to complete a written report every time they stop and ask questions of a member of the public, will improve crime detection.
A cynic may conclude this additional work will infact deter police officers using their initiative when identifying individuals who may be involved in illegal acts, due entirely to their work load.
Surely not a recipe for reducing crime.
