Mark Burns Williamson said "that means more people who are already struggling in West Yorkshire [will be] unfairly penalised transferring the burden to local taxpayers."
He added "Policing Minister Nick Hurd talks about an increase to local police forces but the same cash grant as 2017/18 is in reality a significant cut to our policing budget."
