Police: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what plans she has to update data used to construct indicators for the calculation of Police Main Grant.
Answered by Sarah Jones
This Government is committed to ensuring that policing has the resources it needs and the allocation of funding to police forces remains an important consideration.
The Chancellor has announced a real terms increase in police spending power over the next three years. As with previous years, decisions on police force funding allocations for 2026-27, including the police main grant, will be set out at the forthcoming police funding settlement.
