To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many orders under section 60 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 were made in London in each of the last five years; which officer signed each order; what locality was specified by each order; and for what duration the order was enforced. (143066)

The Home Office does not hold the information requested about authorisations of the use of powers under section 60 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. An authorisation is an operational matter for the police and I have therefore asked the Metropolitan Police Service to collate the information for me. I shall write to the hon. Member when that information is available.
