Always wanted to give your opinion on OPP services? Well now may be your chance.
A Community Satisfaction Survey is scheduled to start this month in the North East Region to get public opinions about the services the OPP detachments deliver to communities throughout the region.
It's a telephone survey that randomly selects members of the public (16 years or older) who live in Ontario.
The survey takes about five to seven minutes to complete and is strictly voluntary.
Those contacted and willing to participate are asked about issues such as community security, perceptions of crime and youth issues in the community, OPP presence in the community, service delivery and even how the OPP investigates crime and enforces the law.
The information is treated confidentially and the names, telephone numbers, and addresses of those surveyed will not be included in the survey results provided to the OPP.
Once the survey is complete, the results will be used in the OPP Business Action Plan and Annual Report. The information will also be useful in helping OPP’s North East Region set out goals and objectives to improve on the services it delivers to communities across the region. These surveys are done throughout the province on a rotational three year schedule.
The North East Region detachment surveys are expected to be completed by March 31, 2016.
