Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the complete list is of different firearms types currently in service with police forces in England and Wales.

The types of firearms held by police forces are determined by individual chief constables in line with their assessment of threats and risks.

National capability is kept under constant review by individual police chiefs at a local level and by the National Armed Policing Lead and National Armed Policing Coordination Centre at a national level.
