answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/11/2018 answer text <p>We undertook a substantial piece of work to assess demand in 2017 in which I spoke to leaders in all forces in England and Wales and also many frontline officers. I understand that forces are under pressure. We recognise that crime is changing and that police demand is becoming increasingly complex.</p><p>We responded by providing a comprehensive funding settlement which will increase total investment in the police system by over £460m in 2018/19. This includes £50m for Counter-Terrorism, £130m for national priorities and £280m in force funding from increases in Council Tax precept income. In Northumbria this means that the PCC could raise an additional £5.3m in local funding this year.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 02/11/2018 15:01:58 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd
