Nesbitt: Policing cuts could have 'long-term negative implications'
UUP Policing Board member Mike Nesbitt responds to news that the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) is to reduce its number of staff by 6% in the coming months.
By March there will be 309 fewer police officers and 115 fewer civilian staff.
The force, which is not recruiting new officers this year, said the cut would leave it with 6,700 police, making it the smallest it has ever been.
