APCO Advocates Plain Speech In a paper titled Plain Speech in Public Safety Communications, the Association of Public Safety Communications Officials International (APCO Intn'l) "...renews its assertion that plain speech communications over public safety radio systems is preferred over the traditional 10-Codes..."
"APCO Intn'l recognizes that the lack of consistent, reliable communication services and/or poor performance are often cited in after action reports as a major failure during disaster situations."
"Using plain speech is a simple remedy to reduce communication failures."
"APCO Intn'l believes that officer safety will be enhanced through thoughtful development of plain speech alternatives to codes / signals that protect the sensitivity of confidential information." For more info go to www.apcointl.org
