A FUW North Wales delegation met up with the Police and Crime Commissioner for north Wales to discuss rural security issues.

Huw Jones was part of a delegation of executive officers who met Arfon Jones to discuss a number of issues, including theft of farm machinery, vehicles and also farm stock.

The meeting was held at the police headquarters in Colwyn Bay.

North Wales Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Ann Griffith also attended.

Huw Jones said of the meeting: “This was our first meeting with Arfon Jones since his election as Police and Crime Commissioner in May this year and I would like to thank the Commissioner for his time to discuss issues of rural policing and security with us.

"It is a very important topic for us at the FUW and indeed all of the agricultural community.”

In addition the delegation discussed the draft Police and Crime Plan for the next four years which will set out objectives for the force area, which will be issued for consultation soon.
