The utility of this approach is contested by some, with debates concerning the economic, organisational, and social benefits of the use of volunteers within policing being paramount. However, it is the economic benefits that are often highlighted within this debate as public policing organisations come under increasing pressure, often as a result of reduced funding and increased demands for service. This article explores the potential economic benefits of one such under-reported volunteer role in England and Wales, that of the Volunteer Police Cadet (VPC) leader. Based upon original research involving VPC leaders, the article explores the commitment of such volunteers and discusses the potential economic and social benefits. The results indicate a clear economic benefit for policing organisations, whilst highlighting the social benefits for communities at large and for the VPC leaders themselves in terms of personal development. This research, whilst purely indicative rather than completely representative, illuminates the potential for the use of volunteers across a range of roles within policing which may have resonance across a number of countries. European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Training (CEPOL) 15/9/2022 Research article Major Garda crime blitz sees 27 charged for theft, criminal damage and burglary offences REPUBLIC OF IRELAND: A total of 27 people have been charged following a major Garda operation targeting crime against business and retail outlets in Dublin. Irish Mirror (Republic of Ireland) 15/9/2022 News Resilience in Law Enforcement Technology Design and Development Analysing User Requirements for Current Approaches in European Border Security Research and Innovation. The COVID-19 pandemic has accentuated the meaning of resilience for European digital infrastructures which safeguard vital societal functions, such as the activities of European law enforcement authorities. The pandemic has vividly illustrated that unreliable IT-systems and networks cripple also authorities’ business continuity and access to critical information when alternative processing methods remain scarce during times of transformed social interaction. The development of resilience thus demands research and innovation investments also in the future, as emerging risks, both physical and human-made, may produce long-lasting consequences to systems critical to European safety and security. In EU-funded security research, resilience has formed a well-established concept even before current events and prolonged crisis, however, not uniformly across all law enforcement domains. This article focuses on border security research in the H2020 programme and analyses how resilience is addressed within this field. The H2020 programme underlines practitioners’ decisive role in determining the requirements for future technological solutions. Therefore, we concentrate on the initial stages of the systems design and development process, in particular the user requirements elicitation phase. The article’s specific aims are to identify preliminary resilience perspectives, which users convey forward in the design and development process, and propose future research directions to strengthen resilience thinking also in the border security domain. European Union Agency for Law Enforcement Training (CEPOL) 15/9/2022 Research article In an era of unwinnable culture wars, police leaders must champion the values of a service that outlast any government As UK policing once again faces criticism for its response to anti-monarchy protests – with officers accused of creating a ‘police state’ if they take action, and being ‘woke’ if they don’t – Senior Policing Lecturer Owen West, a former chief superintendent, argues that it’s time for policing leadership to fill the vacuum in the public debate by defending and promoting the values of the service, or risk a further loss of public trust and confidence.
