Thank you for your request.

The data requested is not held at the requested level of detail. However, we do publish an annual dataset which reports on general government expenditure by Classification of Function of Government (COFOG).

In this dataset, there is expenditure recorded for the Police (COFOG 3.1), Law Courts (COFOG 3.3), Prisons (COFOG 3.4) and Public Order and Safety (COFOG 3.6). The final column on each page reflects the total expenditure reported for General Government in each calendar year.
