In return for the biggest investment in policing for over a decade, it is right that the government holds the policing sector to account for delivering for the public. We will expect the police to achieve measurable improvements across a range of outcomes, focused on crime reduction. These outcomes include: to reduce murder, serious violence and neighbourhood crime; to improve victim satisfaction; to help those whose lives are torn apart by domestic abuse; and to roll up county lines.
