Ikota ngayinye, Ihhovisi Elizimele Lokuziphatha Kwamaphoyisa (i-IOPC) liqoqa imininingwane evela emaphoyiseni mayelana nendlela azisingatha ngayo izikhalazo. Basebenzisa lokhu ukukhiqiza izaziso zolwazi ezibeka ukusebenza ngokumelene nenani lezilinganiso. Baqhathanisa idatha yamandla ngamunye neyabo iqembu lamandla afanayo kakhulu isilinganiso kanye nemiphumela yawo wonke amabutho e-England nase-Wales.
Ukulandisa okungezansi kuhambisana ne Ibhulethini Yezikhalo Ye-IOPC Yekota Yesithathu ka-2023/24:
IHhovisi Lamaphoyisa kanye Nokhomishana Wobugebengu be-Surrey (i-OPCC) liyaqhubeka nokuqapha kanye nokucubungula umsebenzi wokuphatha izikhalo wamaphoyisa ase-Surrey. Le datha yakamuva yesikhalazo ye-Q3 (2023/24) ihlobene nokusebenza kwamaphoyisa aseSurrey phakathi kuka-1st Ephreli 2023 kuya ku-31st Disemba 2023.
Iqembu Lamabutho Afana Kakhulu (MSF): Cambridgeshire, Dorset, Surrey, Thames Valley
Izigaba zezinsolo zithatha umsuka wokunganeliseki ovezwe esikhalazweni. Icala lesikhalazo lizoqukatha isimangalo esisodwa noma ngaphezulu bese kukhethwa isigaba esisodwa sezinsolo ezifakiwe. Sicela ubhekisele ku-IOPC Isiqondiso somthetho ekuthwebuleni idatha emayelana nezikhalazo zamaphoyisa, izinsolo nezincazelo zezigaba zezikhalazo.
Umholi Wezikhalazo we-OPCC uyajabula ukubika ukuthi Amaphoyisa aseSurrey ayaqhubeka nokusebenza kahle kakhulu maqondana nokugawulwa kwezikhalazo zomphakathi kanye nokuxhumana nabamangali. Uma isikhalazo sesenziwe, kuthathe Amandla isilinganiso sosuku olulodwa ukuze afake isikhalazo kokubili naphakathi kwezinsuku ezingu-1-2 ukuze abhale kokubili futhi axhumane nommangali.
Amaphoyisa aseSurrey afake izikhalazo eziyi-1,686 futhi lezi yizikhalazo ezingaphezu kwezingama-59 kunezabhalwa ngeSikhathi Esifanayo Ngonyaka Odlule (SPLY). Iphakeme kancane kunama-MSF. Ukugawulwa kwemithi nokusebenza kokuxhumana kuhlala kunamandla kunama-MSF kanye Nesilinganiso Sikazwelonke, esiphakathi kwezinsuku ezi-1-2 (bona isigaba A1.1).
Lokhu ukusebenza okufanayo nekota yokugcina (Q2 2023/24) nokunye kokubili i-Force ne-PCC eziziqhenya ngayo.
Umbutho wafaka izinsolo ezingu-2,874 (u-166 ngaphezu kwe-SPLY) futhi waqopha izinsolo eziningi ngabasebenzi abayi-1,000 kunama-MSF kanye Nesilinganiso Sikazwelonke. Umbutho uyavuma ukuthi uqopha inani eliphezulu kakhulu lezinsolo kune-MSFs futhi ukuqeqeshwa kuyaqhubeka nabaphethe izikhalo ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi amaphuzu ezikhalazo ahlobene nengxenye ethile yomsebenzi wamaphoyisa afakwa ngaphansi kwezinsolo ezithi lapho kufanele khona futhi ahambisane nesiqondiso se-IOPC.
Indawo i-PCC ejabulela ukuyibika ukuthi iphesenti lamacala afakwe ngaphansi koHlelo 3 futhi aqoshwa 'njengokunganeliseki ngemva kokuphathwa kokuqala' lehlile lisuka ku-32% laya ku-31%. Lokhu kusephezulu kunama-MSF kanye Nesilinganiso Sikazwelonke esiphakathi kuka-14% -19% ngaphansi kwalesi sigaba. Ukubhekana nalokhu kukhathazeka, uMbutho wenze izinguquko ezinqubweni zawo zokuqopha, futhi kufanele sibone intuthuko eyengeziwe ezinyangeni ezizayo, nezikhalo ezincane ezirekhodwa ngaphansi kwalesi sigaba.
Amaphoyisa aseSurrey nawo asohlelweni lokubhekana nezinselelo ezethulwa ngokuphathwa kwempahla. I-Operation Coral yethulwe ukubhekana nezinqubo zokucwaningwa kwamabhuku, ukugcinwa kanye nokuchithwa kwezakhiwo, futhi kuthenjwa ukuthi lo msebenzi uzonciphisa inani lezikhalazo zesikhathi esizayo ngaphansi kwalesi sigaba (bona isigaba A1.2). Umbutho futhi ulindele ukwehliswa kokurekhodwa 'Kwezinga Elijwayelekile Lesevisi' kwikota elandelayo ngenxa yokuqeqeshwa okusanda kulethwa kubaphathi bezikhalazo (isigaba A1.3). Nakuba ziphakeme kunama-MSF ethu, izikhalo eziningi eziphathelene nokusetshenziswa kwamandla ethu ukubopha nokuvalela zixazululwa ngemva kokuthola ukuthi inkonzo yamukelekile.
Umbutho futhi usohlelweni lokubuyekeza ukuthi kungani isigaba esithi 'Akekho' (isigaba A1.4) sihlala singesesibili ngobukhulu. Umbutho ulindele ukuthi abaphathi bezikhalazo basebenzisa lokhu esikhundleni sezinye izici ezifanele futhi bazofuna ukuphendula ngalokho abakutholile kumbiko wekota elandelayo.
Ukufika ngesikhathi kophenyo lwamacala ngaphansi kweSheduli 3 - ngophenyo lwasendaweni, kwakuyizinsuku zokusebenza ezingama-216 uma kuqhathaniswa nezinsuku ezingama-200 ze-SPLY (+16 izinsuku). Ama-MSF yizinsuku eziyi-180 kanti isilinganiso sikazwelonke yizinsuku eziyi-182. I-Surrey PSD isemkhankasweni wokuqasha abaphathi bezikhalazo abasha abathathu ukuze kwandiswe ukuqina kanye nokufika ngesikhathi kophenyo. Kulindeleke ukuthi ukufika ngesikhathi kuzoba ngcono uma izikhulu zisezikhundleni futhi sezithole ukuqeqeshwa okwanele ukuze zikwazi ukwenza umsebenzi.
Indlela izinsolo ezasingathwa ngayo (isigaba A3.1) sibonisa ukuthi u-2% kuphela owasingathwa ngaphansi koHlelo 3 oluphenyiwe (hhayi ngaphansi kwezinyathelo ezikhethekile). Umbutho ukholelwa ukuthi inani lezinsolo ezisingathwayo ezingekho ngaphansi kwezinqubo ezikhethekile lihlala liphansi kunalelo uma liqhathaniswa nama-MSF ngenxa yokuthi i-Surrey PSD inabaphathi bezikhalazo abanekhono lonke, abanomthwalo wemfanelo wokusingatha kokubili kanye nanoma yiluphi uphenyo oludingekayo oludingekayo. Lokhu kubavumela ukuthi baphathe izikhalo ngaphandle kwezidingo zokurekhoda udaba njengophenyo.
Nakuba Amaphoyisa ase-Surrey ethumele ama-29 (27%) ngaphezulu ku-IOPC uma kuqhathaniswa ne-MSF yethu (ukudluliselwa kwesigaba B), kokubili uMbutho kanye ne-OPCC bafuna ukuqinisekiswa yi-IOPC ukuthi lokhu bekulungile futhi kuhambisana neziqondiso.
Umsebenzi uMbutho manje ozogxila kuwo, yizenzo zawo ezilandela ngaphandle kwamacala ezikhalazo oHlelo 3 (bheka isigaba D2.1). I-PSD iyakwamukela ukuthi ayirekhodi umphumela ofanele, iwuqopha 'njengencazelo' ngakho-ke, ukuqeqeshwa kulethwa kubaphathi bezikhalazo ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi umphumela onembe kakhulu uyarekhodwa. Futhi, Amaphoyisa ase-Surrey ahlonza 'i-NFA' kancane kune-MSF yethu, ngaleyo ndlela ebonisa ukuthi sithatha izinyathelo ezifanele lapho kufanele khona emacaleni ethu amaningi. (48% kwikota yokugcina ukuya ku-9% kule kota).
Lapho isikhalo sirekhodwe ngaphansi kweSheduli yesi-3 yoMthetho Wokuguqulwa Kwamaphoyisa ka-2002, ummangali unelungelo lokufaka isicelo sokubuyekezwa. Umuntu angafaka isicelo sokuthi kubuyekezwe uma engeneme ngendlela isikhalazo sakhe esisingathwe ngayo, noma ngomphumela. Lokhu kusebenza ukuthi ngabe isikhalazo siphenywe yiziphathimandla ezifanele noma siphathwe ngenye indlela ngaphandle kophenyo (okungaphenyi). Isicelo sokubuyekezwa sizobhekwa yinhlangano yamaphoyisa yasendaweni noma i-IOPC; inhlangano efanele yokubuyekeza incike ezimweni zesikhalazo.
Phakathi ne-Q3, i-OPCC ithathe isilinganiso sezinsuku ezingama-32 ukuqedela ukubuyekezwa kwezikhalazo. Lokhu bekungcono kune-SPLY ngenkathi kuthatha izinsuku ezingama-38 futhi kuyashesha kakhulu kune-MSF kanye ne-Average National. I-IOPC ithathe Isilinganiso sezinsuku ezingu-161 ukuqedela ukubuyekezwa (inde kune-SPLY lapho kwakuyizinsuku ezingu-147). I-IOPC iyakwazi ukubambezeleka futhi ixhumana njalo ne-PCC kanye namaphoyisa ase-Surrey.
