Police reform is working and crime is down by more than a quarter since 2010, according to the independent Crime Survey for England and Wales.


As with other spending decisions, no decisions have been taken on police funding beyond 2015/16. Future funding levels will be subject to the outcome of the Spending Review later this year.
