Colonel Sir Vivian Henderson
, Bootle
The number of men engaged on this duty varies, but averages about 62 daily. The yearly pay and allowances would amount to about £26,000. I should add, however, that the men in question perform other duties beside the duty mentioned, and the figure I have given must not be regarded as representing a specific charge on the Police Fund in respect of this particular duty.
