Police Grant Report 2007-08 The Minister for Policing, Security and Community Safety (Mr. Tony McNulty) I have today placed in the Library a copy of the Police Grant Report (England and Wales) 2007-08 (HC 207). The report sets out my determination for 2007-08 of the aggregate amount of grants that I propose to pay under section 46(2) of the Police Act 1996, and the amount to be paid to the Greater London authority for the Metropolitan Police Authority. General grant allocations, which include Home Office police grant and revenue support grant from the Department for Communities and Local Government and Welsh Assembly Government, for each police authority for 2007-08 are set out in the table.

Rounded to the nearest £100,000. Grant as calculated under the Local Government Finance Report (England) and Local Government Finance (Police) Report (Wales).

Figures for the City of London relate to Home Office Grant only as calculated in the Police Grant Report (England and Wales).

Welsh figures include Home Office floor funding (£12.9 million). Grant provision under the principal formula for police authorities in Wales is varied to ensure that South Wales Police Authority will receive in principal formula and local authority general grants the same increase as that applicable to police authorities in England. A sum equal to the reduction for South Wales is allocated to Dyfed Powys, Gwent and North Wales Police Authorities.| | | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
