Mr. Sweeney

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will list for each police force in England and Wales in 1981 and 1991 the total income received for rechargeable services and the percentage this represented for each force of their total income.

Separate information on income received by police forces in England and Wales for rechargeable services is not collected centrally. Income from fees and charges is shown in the table (of which income from rechargeable services is a main component) and as a percentage of total income other than central government grant and local authority finance.
