Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what estimate he has made of the cost that will be incurred by South Yorkshire Police Force of the official visit of the President of the United States.

The Home Office has made no estimate of the costs to South Yorkshire Police of providing support for the President’s visit. Forces supplying officers to support major events can be recompensed on a full cost recovery basis by the hosting force through the police's established mutual aid process.
