Neighbourhood Policing: Recruitment
Asked by: Alex Baker (Labour - Aldershot) Monday 9th February 2026 Question to the Home Office: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps her Department is taking to help increase levels of recruitment of neighbourhood police officers. Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Home Office) The Government is committed to rebuilding neighbourhood policing and restoring the vital link between police forces and the communities they serve. By the end of this Parliament there will be 13,000 additional neighbourhood policing personnel across England and Wales. This year we have provided £200m to support forces to deliver 3,000 additional neighbourhood officers by March 2026. We are on track, with forces having already delivered almost 2,400 additional neighbourhood officers in just 6 months. |

Armed Forces: Housing
Asked by: Alex Baker (Labour - Aldershot) Thursday 26th February 2026 Question to the Ministry of Defence: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what plans the Ministry of Defence has in place to improve the standard of Single Living Accommodation for military personnel, and how these plans align with the Government's commitment to enhancing the living conditions for service members in line with current operational and welfare needs. Answered by Louise Sandher-Jones - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Ministry of Defence) The Ministry of Defence (MOD) recognises that high‑quality Single Living Accommodation (SLA) is essential to the welfare, retention and operational readiness of our Armed Forces personnel.
The SLA and Overseas Accommodation Review launched earlier this year is focused on identifying recommendations to enhance SLA, which will inform future investments.
All Front-Line Commands have prioritised SLA condition, reinforced by proactive senior leadership engagement, and have plans to eliminate their worst accommodation. Improving the standard of SLA remains a key priority.
The MOD has provided new and refurbished single rooms using a common design and modular off-site construction aiming to reduce build-times and deliver value for money. Their energy-efficient designs minimise operational energy consumption and running costs as well as enhancing the lived experience and thermal comfort.
