National Policing Capabilities Unit Grants (360G-cabinetoffice-G2-GA-2023111089128-22-23)

Ministers have agreed to allocate £606.5m from the 2022-23 Police Settlement to support Police Technology Programmes, £65m to support National Policing Capabilities and £25.6m to support Forensics. This legislative approval request concerns the £26.52m from that which is administered by the National Police Capabilities Unit within the Home Office. NPCU also administers several grants to the Police Digital Service; these are dealt with in a separate legislative approval request as NPCU is not principally responsible for the Home Offices relationship with the PDS. The grants collectively aim to improve policing capabilities to better deliver Government objectives for the police, including cutting crime, increasing transparency, and improving outcomes for victims.
