Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Police Authorities are considering outsourcing support services to G4S despite Olympic mishaps.

The forces are looking at the success of Lincolnshire Authorities’ outsourcing contracts with G4S to determine the success of the service and how the procurement process proceeds.

The three police services released a statement: “The full business case will therefore be completed over the next few months, ready for consideration and a decision by the Chief Constables in conjunction with the incoming Police and Crime Commissioners.”
