Question
To ask the Scottish Government what recent representations it has made to (a) Police Scotland and (b) the Scottish Police Authority regarding police charging for events.

Police Scotland follows the standard approach to setting charges for public services as set out in the Scottish Government's Scottish Public Finance Manual - which is based on full cost recovery.
