"Having received a large amount of correspondence from concerned constituents in recent weeks regarding crime on Canvey Island I met with Inspector Caulfield.
As a Canvey resident who took over the role recently, he takes the issue as seriously as I do. I was glad to hear that positive action has been taken to deal with the recent incidents.
Inspector Caulfield also praised local residents who have come forward with information which has proved vital in supporting police work on the Island."
