Police overtime

Gloucestershire Police paid out nearly 拢6 000 000 in overtime payments in the last 2 years.

Figures from Gloucestershire Police show the force paid out nearly six million pounds in overtime payments in the last 2 years.

In one instance last year, a single constable received payments of more than 拢16, 000
