HC Deb 09 April 1907 vol 172 c81
MR. HADDOCK

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department from what Vote the increased cost of police periodically engaged at the House of Commons during the last few months will be met.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. GLADSTONE,) Leeds, W.

The cost of the extra police from time to time engaged within the precincts of the House of Commons is charged to the House of Commons Vote. The cost of extra police employed in preserving order in the streets contiguous to the House is chargeable to the police fund, and therefore not on the Votes.
