ACPO comment on future funding of the organisation

An ACPO spokesman said:

"Almost all national coordination for policing is achieved by bringing together chief officers to agree guidance, best practice and national standards in support of the policing service delivered through 44 forces. That is why chief officers volunteer their time 'on top of the day job' through ACPO. The Home Secretary has been very clear about her support for a body to provide professional leadership for policing and we remain in dialogue with the Home Office about future funding."
