IN response to PL Cartlidge's comments on CCTV in Wirral as a serving police officer I find his comments ill-thought out.
The facts are CCTV does deter crime and is a proven asset in the gathering of evidence.
The service provided by the hardworking Council staff is excellent and I can assure him very professional and is not a secret security force.
As an example the evidence gathered from cctv during the disturbances in Birkenhead proved valuable in convicting those responsible.
