asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what was the total cost of providing police and security services for the Women for Peace Rally in London on Saturday 27th November 1976.

The Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis tells me that about 1,630 police officers were on duty. Information about the additional cost of deploying officers who would not otherwise have been on duty could not be obtained without disproportionate expense.
