The Surrey Police and Crime Panel is scheduled to consider the proposed precept for Surrey Police for the 2026-27 financial year. The panel will also review the Surrey Police and Crime Commissioner's (PCC) finance report and discuss the appointment of a co-opted independent member.

2026-27 Police Precept

A key item on the agenda is the consideration of the Surrey Police and Crime Commissioner's (PCC) proposed precept for the 2026-27 financial year. The precept is the amount of money collected from local council tax payers to fund policing services. The report pack indicates that the panel will be reviewing the Surrey PCP 2026-27 Precept paper for Panel - FINAL . This document will likely outline the proposed increase, if any, and the rationale behind it, allowing the panel to scrutinise the financial plans for Surrey Police.

Finance and Integrity Updates

The panel's financial oversight will be further supported by a review of the Surrey PCP - Month 8 2025-26 Finance Report and the Finance Sub Group Report Final . These reports are expected to provide an update on the financial performance of the PCC's office and Surrey Police up to the eighth month of the 2025-26 financial year. Additionally, an Integrity Update is scheduled for discussion, which may cover matters relating to ethical conduct and governance within the police and the PCC's office.
