Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will publish the number of (a) police officers, (b) police community support officers, (c) special Constables and (d) redeployed police officers to be recruited by each police force in year one of the neighbourhood policing grant allocation programme.

The Government has committed to restoring neighbourhood policing through the Neighbourhood Policing Guarantee. As set out in the 2025-26 police funding settlement, £200 million of funding has been allocated to forces in England and Wales in 2025-26 to kickstart the recruitment of 13,000 additional police officers and PCSOs into neighbourhood policing roles by the end of this Parliament.

On 9 April, the Government published force allocations and projections for total neighbourhood policing growth in year one as agreed with each force.
