The table and charts below give information on the police budget for 2017 and 2018 in one area of Britain. The table shows where the money came from and the charts show how it was distributed.
The first table reveals the different sources of revenue for
police
and the pie charts illustrate how
this
income is spent in an area of Britain, both in the years 2017 and 2018.
Overall
, it is evident that the total budget for the
police
has increased considerably.
Moreover
,
police
devoted less revenue to paying salaries after one year,
whereas
the
amount
of money spent on technology witnessed an increase. It can be observed from the table that by the end of 2018, the total
amount
of budget saw a substantial growth from 304.7 to 318.6 million. The
amount
of money that came from local taxes grew more markedly by approximately 11.1 m compared with the other sources.
However
, in both years 2017 and 2018, the national government supplied the largest
amount
of income, 175.5 m and 177.8 m, respectively.
On the other hand
, there is a decline of 6% in the proportion of salaries for officers and staff.
Conversely
,
police
allocated a larger
amount
of money to technology as the corresponding figure rose by 6%.
However
, the expenditure on buildings and transport remained almost constant at 17%.
