Police and Crime Commissioner Alison Hernandez will tell councillors at a meeting that call abandonment rates are also dropping, which is being interpreted as giving an impression that people are more satisfied with the service.

Ms Hernandez will tell the Devon and Cornwall Police and Crime Panel this week that "an extensive programme of work" to improve the speed of answering calls, and respond quickly to enquiries made through the force's website, had delivered "tangible and consistent improvements" to the service the public receive when contacting police.
