Police Grant Report (England and Wales)

Proceeding contribution from Jack Dromey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 10 February 2016. It occurred during Debate on Police Grant Report (England and Wales).

No, forgive me if I finish this important point.

Numbers matter. In the light of attacks such as Paris, we need surge capacity on the one hand, and neighbourhood policing for intelligence gathering on the other hand. We also need more firearms officers; we have 6,000, which is 1,000 down from 2008. We listened to the police.
