The UK National Police Air Service was launched on 1 Oct 2012. It covers all Police Forces in England and Wales (but not Scotland or Northern Ireland) through a collaboration agreement. Its objective is to deliver overall savings in the air support service whilst moving to an operational model which consolidates bases and assets, through allocation of the nearest airframe(s) to a declared task and maintaining a strategic aircraft reserve. Operationally, West Yorkshire Police is the lead force.
