The three-year strategy plan must be consistent with the National Policing Plan made under section 36A of the 1996 Act.
Section 6A(14) of the 1996 Act enables the first period for which a plan has to be submitted to be less than 3 years.

The subsequent three-year periods will be the three-year periods commencing on 1st April 2005, 1st April 2008 and every third year thereafter.
