NORTH Yorkshire's police commissioner is looking for members of the public to help in the search for a new Chief Constable.
Julia Mulligan is hosting a "Question Time" event in Northallerton on July 26 for shortlisted candidates, when members of the public will be able to ask questions about issues important to them and our communities.
Ms Mulligan added: "The public of North Yorkshire are quite rightly demanding of their police service and have high expectations. We therefore need a Chief Constable who genuinely wants to hear what the public has to say, and takes people’s views seriously.
"So rather than limiting the recruitment proceedings to a select few, I want to open up the process to the public and partners."
Questions should be submitted in advance via the police commissioner's website www.northyorkshire-pcc.gov.uk/news/public-question-time.
Those whose questions are selected will be informed by July 12.
The event will take place at North Yorkshire Police Headquarters, at Alverton Court in Northallerton
