We are increasing the number of police officers in England and Wales by 20,000 over the next three years.

As part of this uplift the Metropolitan Police Service has been allocated 1,369 additional officers in the first year to be recruited by the end of March 2021.

At 30 September 2020 the Metropolitan Police Service has already recruited its year one allocation of 1,369 additional officers.

The deployment of police officers is an operational decision for the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police who should be held accountable by

the Police and Crime Commissioner for London, Sadiq Khan.
