HC Deb 22 April 1987 vol 114 c570W
Mr. Tony Banks

asked the Secretary of State for Transport what has been the total cost to London Regional Transport of removing graffiti from the underground in each of the past five years.

Mr. David Mitchell

London Regional Transport has only recently begun to separate costs of removing graffiti on the underground from overall cleaning costs and figures are not therefore available for the last five years. It estimates, however, that the cost of graffiti cleaning in 1986–87 could amount to as much as £500,000.
