Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how many police community support officers there were in Keighley constituency in each of the last 10 years.

The Home Office collects and publishes statistics on the number of police community support officers employed by each police force in England and Wales on a bi-annual basis. These data are published in the ‘Police workforce, England and Wales’ statistical bulletins, which can be accessed here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-workforce-england-and-wales-31-march-2017

The Home Office does not collect this information by constituency. Data on the number of police community support officers in West Yorkshire, as at 31 March each year, can be found in the accompanying Open Data Table: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/629362/open-data-table-police-workforce.ods
