Proceeding contribution from Clive Efford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 27 March 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on Policing in London.
Policing in London
When the hon. Member for Bury St. Edmunds (Mr. Ruffley) talked about crime figures, he took 1998 as his starting point. The point that the Mayor would make, which the statistics bear out, is that crime rates are in line with police numbers. As police numbers have grown and the Government and the Mayor have invested in extra police, crime has come down. The hon. Gentleman should remember that.
