| 释义 |
The force was formed following the amalgamation of Somerset Constabulary and Bath City Police on 1 January 1967.[2] The amalgamation came as a result of the Police Act 1964, which significantly reduced the number of individual police forces in England and Wales. The Act did give the Home Secretary the power to mandate amalgamations, however both preceding forces agreed to a voluntary amalgamation.[3] At the time of formation the force had 912 officers and was responsible for policing a population of 644,460.[2] The force was abolished just over 7 years later on 31 March 1974 as a result of the Local Government Act 1972. The force merged with Bristol City Police and parts of the Gloucestershire Constabulary to form Avon and Somerset Constabulary, which polices the area to this day.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.somerset.gov.uk/archives/Police.htm|title=Police Records|publisher=Somerset County Council|accessdate=2009-04-10}} 2. ^1 {{Cite book|title=Police Reference: England and Wales|last=Clark|first=Peter|publisher=|year=2015|isbn=978-0-9858978-0-2|location=|pages=1969}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://hansard.millbanksystems.com/commons/1966/may/18/police-forces-england-and-wales#S5CV0728P0_19660518_HOC_293|title=POLICE FORCES, ENGLAND AND WALES (ORGANISATION) (Hansard, 18 May 1966)|website=hansard.millbanksystems.com|language=en-GB|access-date=2017-11-26}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.asnarpo.org/|title=National Association of Retired Police Officers Avon and Somerset Branch|publisher=National Association of Retired Police Officers Avon and Somerset Branch|accessdate=2009-04-10}} 8 : 1967 establishments in England|1974 disestablishments in England|20th century in Somerset|Defunct police forces of the United Kingdom|Organisations based in Bath, Somerset|Organisations based in Somerset|History of Bath, Somerset|History of Somerset |
