HC Deb 24 June 1998 vol 314 c509W
Mr. Pike

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department which police forces charge organisers of hunts for policing costs; and if he will make a statement. [46730]

Mr. Michael

This information is not held centrally. It is for chief officers of police to decide when to charge for providing a police service. No charge should normally be levied for officers deployed on the public highway.
