Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many a) CPM Wilson-Plus and b) CPM Watson-Plus drone jammers have been procured across police and security agencies.

The Home Office supports operational partners to develop appropriate counter-drone capabilities to ensure they are able to mitigate the possible threat from the misuse of drones. Procurement decisions are made by those organisations and we do not hold directly manage the specific choices which operational partners such as the police and security agencies make in this area. We also do not comment on specific details of the national police counter-drone capability.

The National Police Chiefs' Council Counter-Drones Unit provide strategic leadership to policing on counter-drones capabilities. Whilst the Home Office work closely with the NPCC, Chief Constables make their own decisions on what equipment to procure.
