Reform of the Police Funding Formula inquiry

Inquiry

Report

In a report published on Friday 11 December 2015, the Commons Home Affairs Committee says during the pause in the Home Office's review of the police funding formula, an independent panel of accounting firms, financial experts and the College of Policing should be appointed to assist the Home Office in formulating revised proposals. The review process was paused after Home Office officials made serious errors in calculating the funding allocations for police force areas. These errors resulted in forces who had been advised they would be "winners" under the new funding allocation finding they are in fact facing cuts, and vice versa.

Government Response


The Home Affairs Committee is holding an inquiry into the police funding formula, following the Government announcement that it is considering a new model of allocating funding to the 43 police forces in England and Wales.
