2 There is no set amount. Police forces bid for Home Office funding before the financial year commences. Total operation costs are analysed and assessed closely by the UK Football Policing Unit (UKFPU) on a force by force basis. Only necessary and relevant costs are covered.
3 Police forces submit an application for Home Office funding to UKFPU at the beginning of the financial year setting out their objetives. Operations are monitored in-year, and at the year end forces submit their results, which are paid once a total has been agreed upon between UKFPU and the force concerned, and an invoice has been submitted.
