At the full MPA meeting on 30 September 2010 the Commissioner stated that: 'Sometimes we move into gaps in the market and that, on occasion, has been to the detriment of what is our prime purpose in policing and our prime purpose is to safe life, prevent crime, detect crime and Queen's peace.' What gaps has the MPS moved into that have been to the detriment of policing, and when is the MPS planning to withdraw from them?
