HC Deb 28 January 1999 vol 324 c375W
Mr. Greenway

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what estimate he has made of the annual cost of the proposed new police authority for Greater London. [67791]

Kate Hoey

The Government have made no estimate of the annual cost of the proposed new police authority for London. In line with the position outside London, the costs of the Metropolitan Police Authority will be borne out of the budget it receives for the policing of the Metropolitan Police District.
