BACKGROUND
The Isle of Wight CCTV system started in July 1998 with 10 town centre cameras in Newport. Three new cameras were added at Newport and a further 15 cameras in Ryde during 2000, and in November 2002 a further 8 cameras were installed at Sandown, another 15 cameras in Newport and 9 at St Mary’s Hospital. There is a camera in Wootton and a portable camera has been available since early 2004.
Members considered a basic Service Level Agreement in 2003,
which needs to be subject to review on a regular basis and which defines the
responsibilities of both commissioner (on behalf of the Safer Communities Partnership)
and monitoring service provider. This
also clarifies the financial responsibilities that have been slightly amended
since consideration by members to reflect the agreement to pay the maintenance
and transmission costs for Newport, Ryde and Sandown town centres. Maintenance and transmission costs for the
hospital remain the responsibility of the NHS Trust.
CCTV
is within the Community Strategy (Policy) and the Crime and Drug Strategy
2005-2008.
Consultation has been via the Safer Communities Partnership, with members including (at 21 December 2004):

There are no legal implications arising out of this –
previously the authority had underwritten financial liability for camera
maintenance. The SLA is due to

March 2006.
