asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the Independent Police Complaints Commission pays the total costs it incurs while conducting an investigation; and, if not, which other bodies contribute towards these costs. [HL2588]

The costs arising from investigations conducted by the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) are a matter for the commission.

Your Question has been passed to the chair of the IPCC and I will ensure that he replies to you directly and arrange for copies of his response to be placed in the House Libraries.
