The Chief Constable of the Essex Police has advised me about the incident at Gutteridge Farm on 9 December 2000 in which the police responded to the rave being held on Mr Bond's property without his consent.

I understand that the officers attending the incident assisted Mr Bond in so far as he was prepared to exercise his rights as landlord.
