Today we launch the process for selection of LCSP Chairpersons across the country.
The LCSPs, which have been piloted in Waterford, Longford and Dublin’s North Inner City, will bring together a range of service providers and the community to examine and deliver on actions that will improve community safety in their localities.
LCSPs will be rolled out in each local authority area later this year and will replace the current Joint Policing Committees (JPCs). They will be the primary structures through which the government’s new approach to Community Safety will be delivered at a local level.
The Partnerships will have a wider membership than the JPCs and will include residents, local councillors, community representatives, business and education representatives along with a range of public services including the HSE, Tusla, An Garda Síochána and the local authority.
The role of the Chairperson will be to lead the work of the Local Community Safety Partnership and find consensus among the members so that a tailored local community safety plan can be developed. They will also be responsible for driving forward the implementation of the community safety plan so that it delivers tangible benefits in the community.
