(asked on 19th July 2017) - View Source
Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether police budgets in England and Wales for Safer Neighbourhood teams were ring-fenced in (a) 2010 and (b) 2017.
This question was answered on 8th September 2017
The Neighbourhood Policing Fund was rolled into core Government funding in 2013-14. This provided greater flexibility for Chief Officers, working with democratically elected Police and Crime Commissioners, to determine how to use their resources in line with local priorities.
