POLICE AUTHORITY WELCOMES NEW MEMBERS
Watford resident, Sue Warman, is one of three new Independent members appointed to Hertfordshire Police Authority who take up their roles in April.
Also appointed are Kevin McGetrick from Digswell and Bengie Walden from Harpenden. Current Independent member and Vice Chair of the Authority, Brenda Griffiths from Radlett, has been re-appointed for a further four years.
Chair of the Authority, Ian Laidlaw-Dickson, congratulated the new members on their appointments. Ian said, “We had over 50 excellent applicants for the four vacancies, but I believe the people we appointed offer a wide mix of ability, skills and experience that will benefit the Authority enormously. On behalf of my colleagues, I would like to offer them my congratulations and look forward to working with them in the future”.
Former College Vice Principal, Sue, said “I was surprised and delighted at the news of my appointment. I know I will have to learn a lot, fast, but I am really looking forward to getting started. I trust that my long experience in the Further Education sector, coupled with a lifetime of living and working in Hertfordshire, will enable me to make a useful contribution to the important work of the Police Authority.”
Ian added, “Our thanks and best wishes go to our three existing Independent members and Magistrate member, who decided to stand down at the end of March. Peter Holland, Christine Adey, Simon Marlow and Robin Lipscombe have given sterling service to the Authority and have helped steer policing in Hertfordshire through periods of great change. We wish them well for the future, and their contribution and input will be greatly missed.”
