HC Deb 09 December 1993 vol 234 c314W
Mr. Waller

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will introduce arrangements to compensate county police forces which incur exceptional costs in the course of official investigations into other police forces.

Mr. Charles Wardle

No. Arrangements already allow for a police force's cost in conducting an investigation on behalf of another force to be covered by the force concerned. The costs are determined between the respective chief officers.
