Text

I declare an interest as a member of the Policing Board. I understand that the cost of policing the Garvaghy Road has been outlined, but can the Minister give us an assessment of the cost to the Executive or to her Department of policing over 2,500 parades every year, not only the financial costs but the costs to our neighbourhood policing teams, which are regularly extracted from their ordinary duties?
