Residents in Thames Valley are being short-changed by the Home Office for not properly funding the full costs of state visits in Windsor.
In the case of the visit of President Trump last year, known as Op Liberty this means that the Force is unable to reclaim around £900,000.
A total of £200,000 of grant funding is available for community and voluntary groups to apply for to help reduce crime across Thames Valley.
Last month, the Government announced the police funding settlement which for Thames Valley Police was £9m less than expected. Now the Home Office made clear that they would only fund around 40% of the cost of new officers.
