Matthew Barber has written to the Home Office seeking an urgent review into police funding.
Thames Valley's police and crime commissioner is seeking an urgent review of the way police funding is allocated following last week's Budget.
The amount received by each force from the government is based on a complex formula that considers a number of factors, including population. He asked for the Home Office to "rapidly reconsider the way in which in-year adjustments to police funding are allocated". "Whilst I welcome an increase in officers pay to recognise the difficult and dangerous work they undertake and to aid with recruitment and retention; again, because of the Home Office’s flawed funding formula, the pay rise was not fully funded by the Home Office, but cost the force £1.9m locally."
