Metropolitan Police commissioner Sir Bernard Hogan Howe told business leaders he may have to reduce the number of police stations in London, according to the Evening Standard.

He is reported to have raised the prospect of as few as 100 as part of £800m savings in the next budget round.

But the Metropolitan Police said today it was not closing any more stations.

The Met has already cut the number of stations down from 600 to 400.

In a statement the Met Police said: "There are no plans to close police stations or offices in Croydon, Sutton, Kingston, Richmond, Wandsworth or Wimbledon.

"We continue to deliver the 2013-2016 MOPAC/MPS Estates Strategy, which, when completed will provide up to 400 buildings in support of operational needs. 

"This includes 73 front counters and more than 100 contact points to provide the public with physical access, together with a variety of facilities from specialist forensic laboratories through to custody suites and training facilities."

It also said the force was keen to share space with partner agencies, like the London Fire Brigade and local councils.

The statement said: "We are now modelling what facilities we will need and where these should be located, based on the design principles of the existing strategy."
