RUGBY AT TWICKENHAM

Early day motion 374A1, tabled 10 February 2000 by Vincent Cable (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 1 member.

leave out from 'House' to end and add 'applauds the Metropolitan Police for seeking licensing arrangements at the RFU which best meet the needs of public order, public safety and community relations; deplores efforts to politicise a matter which has been extensively considered on its merits before the local magistrates' court; and calls on the Home Secretary to allow the police to charge promoters of major entertainment events, including sport, for the extra cost of policing outside stadiums so that over-stretched police resources are not diverted from their priority task, which is crime.'.
