Knife crime THE Home Secretary has confirmed that Thames Valley Police (TVP) will be one of four forces to trial the introduction of new post-conviction powers to further tackle knife crime and violence. TVP, alongside West Midlands, Merseyside and Sussex, will trial the introduction of new Serious Violence Reduction Orders (SVROs). The court orders are designed to ensure convicted offenders receive additional interventions and support to help prevent their reoffending. They will give police enhanced stop and search powers so that those who continue to carry a knife or an offensive weapon are more likely to be caught and put in prison.
