Question to the Northern Ireland Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what plans they have to ensure that Police Service of Northern Ireland officers are properly remunerated for their service.
The UK Government will always give its fullest possible backing to the men and women of the PSNI who do such a superb job. Policing is a devolved matter. The PSNI’s main budget is allocated by the Department of Justice from the Northern Ireland block grant, through the Policing Board. Operational policing costs are a matter for the Chief Constable.
