Police Stations: Greater London
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, which 100 wards in London are the furthest distance from a police station.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
The Home Office does not hold centrally, and could only collate and verify it for the purpose of answering this question at disproportionate cost.
It is up to Chief Constables and directly elected Police and Crime Commissioners to make decisions on local resourcing and estates, including police stations. They are best placed to make these decisions based on their local knowledge and experience.
Police stations are just one of the ways people can access their local police services, including reporting online and by phone 24/7.
