That this House notes with great concern that the Lincolnshire Police Authority has increased its precept by 78.9 per cent.; notes that the Lincolnshire Police Force is the lowest funded in England and Wales; believes that under-funding by central government is the principal cause of the financial problems that the Lincolnshire Police Authority faces; and calls on the Government substantially to increase the grant to be paid to the Lincolnshire Police Force in 2008-09.

This motion has been signed by a total of 3 MPs.
