The question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 8 September 2025 to Question 71962 on Cambridgeshire Constabulary: Stun Guns, what is her planned timetable for taking a decision on whether to approve the Taser 10 for police use.

Answered by Sarah Jones

We are considering the results of independent testing and assessments of the Taser 10, as you would expect, before taking a decision on whether to approve it for police use.

The government is committed to giving police the necessary tools to protect the public, prevent harm and save lives.
