You say in your consultation budget that, “Historically, more than 80 per cent of funding for the police in London comes from national government and less than 20 per cent from regional government. It was 19 per cent in 2016 when I first came to office. But due to an increase in funding from City Hall and inadequate funding from national government, the percentage of funding from City Hall for the police is now close to a quarter.” What additional funding would Government need to provide to ensure the historical 80/20 split in your final budget for 2024/25?
