Electoral Commission

Volume 700: debated on Monday 21 April 2008

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Why the Written Answer by Lord West of Spithead on 20 February (WA 65) refers only to Electoral Commission complaints to and investigations by the Metropolitan Police Service; whether they will provide details of the overall costs of all United Kingdom police investigations on behalf of the Electoral Commission; and what were the outcomes of those investigations. [HL2857]

The Government are not aware of any other investigations being carried out by any other police forces, but detailed information is not held centrally and could be obtained only at a disproportionate cost.
