HC Deb 21 February 1985 vol 73 c509W
Mr. Adley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he has any proposals to charge the costs of policing private functions, such as party conferences, to the organisers thereof; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Giles Shaw

We have no proposals for changing the present arrangements, under which charges are made only for those police services which would not normally be provided in pursuance of the general duty of the police to preserve law and order.
