Police Funding Settlement

Proceeding contribution from Bob Blackman (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 December 2018. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Police Funding Settlement.

The murder rate in London is at its highest since 2008. My right hon. Friend the Minister will know that, in Harrow, we face a spike in aggravated burglaries—burglars burst into people’s homes knowing that they are there to intimidate them and beat them up. That clearly needs extra policing resources, but not ordinary policing resources—it needs detectives with experience and capability. What in the settlement will encourage people to remain in the police force and encourage new recruits?
