Police Funding Formula

Proceeding contribution from Steve McCabe (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 March 2016. It occurred during Estimates day on Police Funding Formula.

The Policing Minister has said that achieving a fair funding formula is incredibly complex, and he has acknowledged that it is beyond the competence of his civil servants. The hon. Member for South Dorset (Richard Drax) has said that he is seeking fair funding, as are the rest of us. Given the difficulties, doubts and suspicions, will the Minister give a commitment that any future fair funding formula will be subject to proper independent scrutiny and analysis, so that we can all have confidence in it?
