## Description
Kent County Council, as part of the Kent and Medway Resilience Forum (KMRF), currently provide on road, Community Safety Accreditation Scheme (CSAS) resource, to assist KMRF partners with managing disruption on the Kent Road network when there are delays at the Kent ports.
As part of KMRF's continued work to manage border disruption in Kent, Kent County Council provide CSAS accredited officers, to assist other partners (Kent Police and National Highways) in managing and directing traffic as set out in the KMRF Operation
Fennel Plan. This includes officers within the Operation Brock footprint on the M20 and also in and around Dover as part of the Dover Traffic Management Plan.
With the introduction of enhanced border checks as part of the European Entry Exit System (EES) possibly leading to increased and more prolonged periods of disruption, the Council, on behalf of KMRF, will also require Police accredited CSAS officers and officers holding other CSAS accreditations (Security Industry Authority (SIA)) to manage traffic and safety in designated sites off of the public highway.
The key objectives of the service are:
• To provide trained and accredited officers to support community safety, security, and traffic management operations.
• To enable enforcement of accredited CSAS powers in accordance with the Police Reform Act 2002.
• To ensure safe, compliant, and efficient direction of vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
• To deliver a visible, professional presence to deter anti-social behaviour and support public reassurance.
Actual expenditure will vary based on the number and duration of deployments, however based on the response received from Right Guard Solutions Ltd, the total contract value is estimated to be between £0 and £958,440 (exc. VAT), depending on usage.
The introduction of the full EES registration for all passengers, is likely to commence during the term of this contract. This is a new and untested process and as such, the KMRF cannot set out the exact dates on which CSAS officers will be required both on road and off road at the designated sites close to the Port of Dover, therefore actual expenditure will vary based on the number and duration of deployments, depending on usage.
