Crime Prevention: Lincolnshire
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much funding has been allocated to community safety initiatives in Lincolnshire in the last three years.
Answered by Dame Diana Johnson
As the locally elected representative for policing in their area, it is for Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs) to decide on the allocation of funding to community safety initiatives, based on the priorities set out in their Police and Crime Plans.
Lincolnshire Police will receive up to £174.5 million in 2025-26, an increase of up to £10.3 million when compared to the 2024-25 funding settlement. This equates to a 6.2% cash increase and 3.8% real terms increase in funding.
