Council Tax (Police Costs) (Hansard, 23 January 2002)

HC Deb 23 January 2002 vol 378 c945W 945W

§ Fiona Mactaggart
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the average cost per head of the police element of the council tax. [28666]

§ Dr. Whitehead
I have been asked to reply.
In England, the average police authority council tax for 2001–02 is approximately £26 per head of population. This includes council tax that is met by council tax benefit. This excludes the City of London, for which the council tax for police services cannot be separately identified.
