Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what representations she has received from police forces on the costs of policing fracking sites.
The Lancashire PCC has submitted an application for Special Grant funding for the costs of policing the anti-fracking protests in Lancashire; this is currently being reviewed.
The North Yorkshire PCC has also approached Home Office officials for information on how to apply for Special Grant funding; an application has not yet been received.
