A new multi-million pound police firearms training centre in Portishead is likely to be approved by councillors today.

North Somerset Council's planning committee is due to meet to discuss plans for the new centre at Black Rock Quarry, which would open in 2014 and be used by three forces including Avon and Somerset.

If councillors give permissionas expected - it will then go to the Secretary of State for final approval because it's on green belt land.
