Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, if she will publish the advice given by her Department's representative on the Police Staff Council on the one per cent public sector pay cap at meetings of that Council since the 2011 Autumn Statement.

The Government has been clear on its policy on public sector pay since the 2011 Autumn Statement. Home Office representatives attend Police Staff Council and have reflected that position over time.

Police staff pay awards are not subject to approval by the Home Secretary or any other representative of the Home Office.
