Medway Council has launched a CCTV service for residents of Swale. The new agreement with Swale BC is part of a long-term ambition for Medway to become a regional hub for CCTV services. Cllr Mike O'Brien, Medway's portfolio holder for community safety, said: ‘We are always looking at ways of running services as efficiently as we can, without affecting quality or performance, and collaborating in this way with other local authorities is a good way of achieving that.'
