answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/11/2021 answer text <p>As a part of our County Lines programme we are supporting the National County Lines Co-ordination Centre (NCLCC) which has been established to strengthen the law enforcement response and enable police forces to work together to tackle this complex issue.</p><p>The NCLCC regularly coordinates weeks of intensive action against county lines gangs, which all police forces take part in. As reported by the National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC), the most recent of these took place between 11-17 October and resulted in more than 1,400 arrests, nearly £2m worth of class A drugs, over £1m in cash and nearly 300 weapons seized, more than 2,600 vulnerable people safeguarded, and 894 cuckooed addresses visited.</p><p>The NPCC do not report on charges for the week of intensification. However, the NCLCC have identified all national law enforcement initiatives in relation to ‘cuckooing’ and are sharing best practice. Examples include working with local authorities and housing associations to disrupt this malicious crime and signpost vulnerable victims to support.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 19/11/2021 14:16:51 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse

question text	To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with reference to Police funding for England and Wales 2015 to 2022; Police Force Area Population Statistics for England & Wales, what assessment she has made of the potential effect of disparities in funding per resident for police forces on levels of policing in urban Ipswich.

uin	72600
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/11/2021 answer text <p>It has been clear for some time that the current police funding formula is out of date and no longer accurately reflects demand on policing. A new review of the funding formula is now underway and will rightly consider all aspects of the formula, including an evidence-based assessment of drivers of the risk of crime and demand on policing, and issues that affect costs at a local level.</p><p>Reviewing the funding formula will ensure a fairer distribution of the circa £8 billion of annual core grant funding to the 43 police forces in England and Wales. I have previously confirmed the Government’s intention to complete this work before the next General Election.</p> answering member constituency North West Hampshire answering member printed Kit Malthouse question first answered 19/11/2021 14:19:59 answering member 4495 label Biography information for Kit Malthouse
