FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST REFERENCE NO: FOI-557-2023
I write in connection with your request for information which was received on 5th June 2023 as follows:
Could Warwickshire Police please provide a summary projection of the costs incurred in "Policing" the Knife Angel exhibition in Nuneaton?
It has been noted that a Police Van and a number of Officers appear to be maintaining a presence in relation to this event.
Please find the Warwickshire Police response set out below.
Response: No information held
I can advise that there has been no extra cost to policing the Knife Angel. The officers who are engaging with the public at the site are on normal duties, no overtime has been incurred, and their presence is part of a month-long engagement strategy and ongoing legacy programme linked to reducing violence within Nuneaton and Bedworth. Please see the below links to the Warwickshire Police and OPCC websites for further information in this respect:
