Nottinghamshire Police Firearms Licensing Independent Advisory Group Announcement

The inaugural meeting of the new Independent Advisory Group (IAG) of the Nottinghamshire Police's Firearms Licensing Department will take place on Wednesday 11th September 2024. The meeting will be held at 1300 hours at JFHQ, Sherwood Lodge, Nottingham with key stakeholders.

The purpose of the IAG is threefold. Firstly, it provides a medium through which the concerns and issues of the shooting community can be channelled to Nottinghamshire Firearms Licensing Team. Secondly, it provides a significant repository of knowledge and expertise in all the key shooting disciplines upon which we can draw. Thirdly, it provides a means through which the police can inform key shooting groups of developments and points of issue.

The group will meet every six months.

The development of the new IAG for Firearms Licensing is a development which will help foster mutual understanding, manage risk and enhance the service we provide to the shooting community.
