short-change by the Home Office
Today the Home Office has announced that it is to pay one hundred thousand pounds towards the cost of Dyfed-Powys’ expenditure on the abortive police merger that was to be imposed on it and the other police forces by the Home Office.
This will still short-change the police force by over one hundred thousand pounds which will, of course, be passed on to Welsh taxpayers.
I consistently opposed this merger but feel that the wasted costs of preparing for the merger should be borne by the Home Office.
Why should the hard pressed taxpayers of Wales pay for this?
