Lincolnshire Police: Translation Services
Home Office written question – answered at on 27 November 2024.
Richard Tice Reform UK, Boston and Skegness
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, how much Lincolnshire Police spent on (a) translation and (b) interpretation services in each of the last three years.
Diana R. Johnson The Minister of State, Home Department
The Home Office does not hold information relating to the proportion of budgets spent on translation and interpretation services for police forces.
Decisions on how to use funding and resources are an operational matter for Chief Constables. Police and Crime Commissioners are best placed to make resourcing decisions within their communities based on their local knowledge and experience.

NHS: Translation Services
Department of Health and Social Care written question – answered at on 27 November 2024.
Rupert Lowe Reform UK, Great Yarmouth
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the answer of 14 November to Question 14378 on NHS Translation Services what the (a) cost for translation of and (b) percentage of communications in each language in e-RS communication letters was in each of the last five years.
Karin Smyth Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care)
The e-RS translated letters are based on standard templates, so NHS England only pays translation costs when the templates change, or when they add additional languages. The cost incurred in the last five years is £4,213, which breaks down as:
¾ £780 as of June 2019, with 10 languages;
¾ £1,593 as of June 2023, with 25 languages; and
¾ £1,840 as of January 2024, with 25 languages.
