HC Deb 03 February 1982 vol 17 c146W
Mr. George Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what is the average payment per domestic hereditament on police services in (a) England and Wales, other than London, (b) the Metropolitan Police district and (c) the City of London, respectively, excluding rate support grant and police grant.

Mr. King

Rate support grants are paid in support of local authority services generally. It is not therefore possible to identify the amount of grant, or the average domestic rate bill, attributable to police services. Comparisons of expenditure on police services are contained in "Local Government Comparative Statistics 1981" published by the Chartered Institute of Public Finance and Accountancy.
