answer text <p>It is not possible to make direct comparisons between these years due to changes in police funding arrangements over the period. Information on historic police funding can be found in our statistical bulletin published at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-funding-for-england-and-wales-2015-to-2019%20" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-funding-for-england-and-wales-2015-to-2019 </a>which explains the changes in the structure of police funding.</p><p>Details of the police funding settlement for forces in England and Wales, is published annually at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/police-finance" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/police-finance</a>. The funding settlement for 2019/20, agreed by Parliament on 5 February, provides up to £970 million of additional funding for the police, including the pensions grant and income from council tax precept. In the West Midlands, this means funding of up to £568.6 million, an increase of up to £34.3 million from 2018/19.</p>

The 31-day standard of decision to treat to undergoing first treatment will remain in place.

answer text <p>We do not currently have clear estimates of the comparative cost of filling National Health Service vacancies with permanent rather than bank and agency staff. However, we do recognise that the cost of meeting the current level of staff shortages through bank and agency is greater than if those vacancies were filled by permanent staff. This is why we are working hard to boost NHS recruitment and reduce reliance on expensive agency workers.</p><p> </p><p>The Department has provided a 25% increase in funding available for training places for doctors and nurses from September 2018. There are currently over 52,000 nurses in undergraduate training, over 30,000 doctors in undergraduate training, and over 50,000 doctors in foundation and specialty postgraduate medical training. The Department is continuing to work closely with universities and stakeholders to ensure the uptake of additional training places.</p><p> </p><p>We are also working with NHS Improvement to implement a number of measures to reduce agency expenditure and ensure that trusts have effective and efficient banks. As a result of this work, total agency expenditure across NHS trusts in England has fallen from a peak of £3.6 billion in 2015/16 to £2.4 billion in 2017/18 – a £1.2 billion reduction.</p>
