Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Emma Reynolds and Nick Hurd

Monday 29th October 2018 Commons Chamber

[Emma Reynolds (Wolverhampton North East) (Lab)]

T5. In the west midlands we have lost over 2,000 police officers and violent crime is on the rise. Will the Home Secretary look again at funding for West Midlands police and reverse the imposition of extra pension costs?

[Mr Hurd]

I am sure that the hon. Lady is aware that West Midlands received more funding this year— £9.9 million—in a police funding settlement that she voted against. I will be coming to the House in early December with our proposals for 2019-20.
