Of possible interest to readers is the offer of £50m of Home Office funding for the use of innovative technology to improve policing. Interest is indicated in everything from wearables, such as body-worn cameras, to shared digital infrastructure with other services, such as health. Bids need, obviously, to involve one or more police forces and be signed off by a Police & Crime Commissioner.

Read Damian Green’s speech introducing it. Further details, including the application process, are here.
