State Visits: USA

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what the cost to the public purse of police support for the visit of President Trump was; and whether his Department provided additional funding to police forces for that visit.

Answer

The Home Office is closely engaging with the Metropolitan Police and Hampshire Police with regard to President Trump’s state visit in June 2019.

The full costs of the policing operation are not yet finalised. Once an application for Special Grant is received it will be given careful consideration and a decision on the level of funding to be provided will be made in due course.
