  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney

  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones

You have already said that pay is a huge percentage of your budget. As you increase offices you are actually brining the point at which it becomes inefficient and you are going to have to backfill officers into support staff roles, eve closer, are you not? If you stick with this what is a fairly arbitrary number of 32,000, or even what has been described as a ‘fetish’ for the...
