The Receiver for the Metropolitan Police District tells me that precept income in 1999–2000 from the areas that, subject to enactment of the Greater London Authority Bill, will cease to be part of the Metropolitan Police District on 1 April 2000 will be £16.7 million. This represents 0.9 per cent. of the total income of the Metropolitan Police for the year 1999–2000 from police and revenue support grant, redistributed non-domestic rates and precepts on local authorities. It is 7.4 per cent. of total police precept income.
