This means each offender will have a personalised risk management plan to reduce the risk they pose to the public.</p><p>No offender who continues to pose a risk to the public will be subject to reactive management but will continue to be managed closely by the police. If at any point there are any concerns about an offender in reactive management, they will be reverted back to active management.</p><p>We continue to work with the Police and other law enforcement agencies to ensure that the right powers are available for the authorities to tackle sexual crimes and to bring perpetrators to justice.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 21/01/2019 11:32:50 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd

uin	203386
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 07/01/2019 answer text <p>The estimated additional costs to police forces in 2019/20 as a result of the increase in employer pension contributions for the police officer pension scheme is £302m.</p><p>In his Budget, the Chancellor committed to providing funding for the police in 2019/20 to cover additional pensions costs above the £165m which was expected at Budget 2016. The pensions grant announced at the settlement totals £137m for police officer pensions and is therefore equivalent to 45% of the increased costs. The police settlement also provided a further £16m for forces who have staff in the civil service pension scheme. In total, the police settlement provides an additional £153m to policing in respect of their additional pension pressures in 2019/20.</p><p>The Government is enabling an overall increase in funding of up to £970m in police funding including precept and national priorities. This pensions funding, taken together with the additional grant funding and local precept, provides sufficient means for the police to meet cost increases, while continuing to recruit and invest in the capabilities they need.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 07/01/2019 17:21:56 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd
