Sarah Jones, the Minister for Policing and Crime, acknowledged the debate's importance and the need for action on bike theft. She outlined several initiatives including increased police presence through the addition of 3,000 officers by April next year and an additional £200 million investment in policing. The Minister also mentioned legislative changes such as banning electronic devices used to override vehicle locks and facilitating quicker warrantless searches for GPS-tracked stolen items. Jones highlighted ongoing work with other government departments to address online sales of stolen goods through the Online Safety Act 2023. For 14 years, there has been a lack of investment in policing; through those years of austerity, we lost not just police officers but any investment in new infrastructure. We will shortly introduce a police reform Bill to enable our police officers to focus on physical crime and spend less time on bureaucracy. A central policing function will deal with national-level crime issues such as bike theft, ensuring targeted responses. We are also looking at emerging trends and best practices through groups like the motorcycle crime reduction group and the national vehicle crime working group. Bike marking is important for identification purposes, and online registries can help recover stolen bikes. The police need to be equipped with new technology like drones and AI to combat bike theft effectively. I welcome more ideas from constituents on how we can further reduce this kind of crime.
