The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to page 34 of the Government document entitled Plan for Change, published on 5 December 2024, what progress she has made on agreeing a single performance framework for policing.

Answered by Dame Diana Johnson

Since 5 December 2024, when My Rt Hon Friend, the Prime Minister, announced the Government’s Plan for Change, we have been working closely with the sector to draw up a new Police Performance Framework to ensure standards are upheld across the country. We have also been working to establish a new Unit within the Home Office, which will identify and support force-level improvements.

Further details will be published in the forthcoming Police Reform White Paper.
