HC Deb 24 February 1993 vol 219 c632W
37. Mr. Michael

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment what account is taken in the current year's revenue grant settlement to local authorities of their responsibilities in crime prevention.

Mr. Robin Squire

There is no provision in the revenue support grant settlement which is earmarked specifically for crime prevention. Within the overall resources provided, however, police and probation services do undertake a range of functions directed towards crime prevention and reduction.
