Police funding for England and Wales statistics
Providing a single source of statistical information on police funding levels.
Accredited Official Statistics status
In 2021 this statistical series underwent an OSR assessment of compliance with the Code of Practice for Statistics. Shortly after the publication of Police Funding: England and Wales 2015 to 2022, in July 2021, the Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR) wrote to the Home Office confirming their designation of Accredited Official Statistics.
User engagement survey
To expand on the work started as a part of the OSR assessment of these statistics, we have launched a user engagement survey to help shape future publications of these statistics.
We want to identify further current uses and users of the data as well as provide a chance for users to give their suggestions on how the publication can better meet their needs. Whilst the survey will be anonymous by default, we encourage regular users who are interested in establishing an ongoing dialogue with the Home Office to provide their contact details when prompted, as this will help develop the statistics and our user engagement plan. For more information on user engagement see chapter 4 of the user guide.
