Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what level of funding the British Transport Police has received to tackle anti-social behaviour on (a) trains and (b) trains stations in (i) West Yorkshire and (ii) England.
This question was answered on 12th September 2017
As the British Transport Police (BTP) receives its funding from individual train operators it is not possible to provide the information requested. However, BTP’s C division, which covers West Yorkshire, has a specific commitment in its policing plan to prevent anti-social behaviour.
