	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 01/04/2014 answer text <p> </p><p>The funding settlement for the police is a challenging one. However, as the <br>vast majority of forces, including Greater Manchester Police are <br>demonstrating, it is manageable. The latest report from Her Majesty's <br>Inspectorate of Constabulary (Policing in Austerity: Rising to the Challenge <br>July 2013) found that crime is falling and the proportion of officers on the <br>front line is increasing. The Government has protected the police from the <br>additional 2014/15 reductions that were announced in the Chancellor's December <br>Autumn Statement, which means the police will face a 3.3% cash reduction in <br>central Government funding (5.75% in real terms) compared to 2013/14. Once <br>future police precept income is taken into account, the reduction in overall <br>funding is even lower.<br><br>In the Greater Manchester Police force areas, recorded crime fell by 7% between <br>September 2012 and September 2013.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Ashford answering member printed Damian Green question first answered 01/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 76 label Biography information for Damian Green
