Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps he is taking to ensure that the police investigate all reported crime.
We expect the police to take all reports of crime seriously and to investigate where appropriate. It is the responsibility of Chief Constables and Police and Crime Commissioners to make sure criminal cases are investigated properly
Funding to the police in 2019/20 is increasing by over £1 billion in 2019/20, including council tax, extra funding for pensions costs, and £100 million funding to tackle serious violence.
