Actually I forgot...
In my previous post I said patrol time wasn't audited. A non mouse pointed out that in some forces it is, and it reminded me that we recently had an auditing exercise in place whereby we write down what we've been up to for every 15 minutes of a shift - Activity Based Costing or something like that. Problem was, they never bothered delivering the forms to us so we couldn't do it, and nobody actually seemed that fussed when we never submitted anything, hence why it was soon forgotten! Mine would have read "handover paperwork" for most of them anyway.
