Hampshire Constabulary is the territorial police force responsible for policing the counties of Hampshire and the Isle of Wight in South East England.〔Hampshire Constabulary, 2012 Retrieved 27 April 2012〕 The force area includes the historic city of Winchester, and the largest city in South East England of Southampton and the naval city of Portsmouth.〔 The force also covers the New Forest National Park, sections of the South Downs National Park, and large towns such as Basingstoke, Eastleigh, Andover, Fareham and Aldershot. The constabulary, as it is currently constituted, dates from 1967 but modern policing in Hampshire can be traced back to 1832. Police headquarters occupy a tall, post-war office building located on West Hill, Winchester which is visible from most approaches to the city, and sits on the site of the first county headquarters, built in 1847. The force's central administration is based here together with the Chief Constable and staff officers. Plans have been announced for most headquarters-based departments to be relocated elsewhere in the County, including sharing the Fire And Rescue Headquarters at Eastleigh and using Mottisfont Court, Winchester. The current headquarters building was sold in 2014 and was vacated in November 2015. During 2013 and 2014 a number of police stations have closed and been sold, or are currently up for sale.〔Lambert, Smith, Hampton are handling the sales and properties can be found at the website hampshirepoliceproperties.com (accessed 10.8.2014)〕 The need to reduce costs led to the formation of a Joint Operations Unit with Thames Valley Police which, during the course of 2012, saw the amalgamation of Roads Policing Units, Training, Firearms and Dog Units of the two forces. The IT departments of the forces merged in early 2011. The force is overseen by Police and Crime Commissioner Simon Hayes, who stood as an independent and who is a former chairman of Hampshire Police Authority. In April 2015, Hampshire Constabulary announced a "new-look policing model." The change included the introduction of borderless policing - a shift away from the force's previous Operational Command Units (OCUs) towards flexibility for officers in response and patrol. The change saw the repurposing of a number of police stations which were closed to the public into 12 new patrol hubs - the places from which response officers now start and end their shifts. The change also saw an adjustment in how investigations works, moving geographically-based investigation teams into newly created Police Investigation Centres (PICs), combining CID and other investigative teams, alongside the newly created Resolution Centre to resolve a greater volume of crime. Finally, the former Safer Neighbourhood Teams were adjusted, becoming Neighbourhood Police Teams aligned with local authority wards, easing the administrative strain of inter-agency collaboration.〔Details of the new-look policing model can be found in (Frontline Issue 187 ).〕 ==Senior Management Team== The senior team, each of whom is a member of the Association of Chief Police Officers, is as follows: ::Chief Constable (CC):- Andy Marsh ::Deputy Chief Constable (DCC):-Graham McNulty ::Assistant Chief Constable (ACC):- David Pryde ::Assistant Chief Constable (ACC) Joint Operations: Chris Shead (Shared appointment with Thames Valley Police)〔appointed June 2013 replacing John Campbell who was the first joint appointment to this post BBC News 2012 Retrieved 2 May 2012〕 ::Head of Human Resources:- Nicole Cornelius 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hampshire Constabulary」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
