The £22 million awarded in Special Grant funding to the Metropolitan Police referred to in our answer to question 213415 was solely for the Grenfell Tower investigation and response. It does not represent the full amount of Special Grant funding provided to the Metropolitan Police for 2017-18 and 2018-19.
