Police: Equipment
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many and what proportion of police forces have inflatable crash mats.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
The Home Office does not hold the requested information.
Decisions around procuring this type of equipment is a matter for operationally independent Chief Constables, Police and Crime Commissioners or their Mayoral equivalents, to be taken in line with the needs of their local force.
