Police and Justice Funding – 2015 General Election

Back to all Motions

Conference
2014 Police & Justice Conference
Date
25 June 2014
Decision
Carried as Amended

Since the election of the coalition government in 2010 the police and justice budget has been disproportionally slashed which has had a severe impact on UNISON members both at work and within the wider community.

Conference believes this unprecedented and imbalanced attack should not be allowed to continue and must be stopped when a Labour Government is elected.

Conference therefore calls upon the Service Group Executive to work with Labour Link to try and influence the 2015 Labour Party Manifesto to seek to ensure it gives a firm commitment that all aspects of policing and the justice system will be properly funded.
