Written Question
Police
Monday 26th February 2024

Asked by: Sheryll Murray (Conservative - South East Cornwall)

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what progress he has made on making police services more accessible.

Answered by Chris Philp - Shadow Home Secretary

  • As set out in the Beating Crime Plan, we are investing in the development and delivery of the Single Online Home, a national platform allowing the public to access a range of interactive police services in one place, including details about their neighbourhood police officers and their contact details.
  • To ensure that the police know how responsive their local force is to 999 calls, we worked with policing to publish 999 answering times, and in September 2023 I wrote to police forces encouraging the publication of 101 answering time data.
