COST OF BARONESS THATCHER'S BOOKSIGNING

EDM number 2588 in 1992-93, proposed by Doug Hoyle on 03/11/1993.

That this House condemns the ú250,000 cost to the taxpayers of protecting Lady Thatcher during her signing tour, especially since her visit to Chester resulted in a ú26,000 bill to Cheshire constabulary because details of her visit were revealed six weeks ahead; believes this is adding insult to injury to a police force which is already reeling from a massive bill of ú600,000 to ú1,000,000 for investigations following the Warrington bombing outrage which came from an already severely stretched budget; and calls upon Baroness Thatcher's publishers to repay the ú250,000 security bill from the vast profits made by these public appearances.

This motion has been signed by a total of 38 MPs.
