Devon and Cornwall Police have assured residents that a convoy spotted in the region today is nothing to panic about.
Devon and Cornwall Police and other Forces in the region, in conjunction with other responders, are engaged in a Major Incident Exercise from Monday November 3 to Tuesday November 6.
It is the statutory duty, in accordance with the Civil Contingencies Act, that all agencies prepare and practice for a major incident.
the exercise forms a part of a national training programme and is a necessary and important test of contingency plans. This provides invaluable training and experience for all participants.
The exercise has been a year in the planning and the timing of it is not linked to the recent Terrorism Act arrest in Hayle or any other real-life events.
Members of the public are assured that during the exercise, they will not experience any reduction in the quality of service provided.
