Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 22 March 2021 to Question 170550 on North Wales Police: Finance, if he will publish the same information for each year in the period 2008-09 to 2016-17.

The information requested is available online, on the Government website, at the link listed below. Here there are links to the Police Grant allocations for each year from 2010-11 and the Police Grant Report which is published annually and sets out details of Central Government to police forces in England and Wales. These reports contain information on funding to North Wales Police.

Police funding prior to 2010-11 can be found on Parliament.uk at the following link.

It is important to note that it is difficult to make direct comparisons between current police funding figures and police funding in the years before 2015-16 due to a number of significant changes in the structure of police funding and the structure of policing over the period.
