Police: Financial Sustainability

Proceeding contribution from James Heappey (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 12 September 2018. It occurred during Urgent question on Police: Financial Sustainability.

Tomorrow evening there will be a public meeting in Glastonbury at which residents from across the community will air their concerns about antisocial behaviour in the town. Avon and Somerset police hitherto have been limited in the way they have been able to respond to that because of the challenges of delivering policing across a large rural county such as Somerset. Will the Minister of State ensure that, in all future decisions on police funding, the cost of rurality is factored in and that rural areas are therefore well provided for?
