A. On how many occasions since September 2018 has Operation Close Pass been
run and what format did these sessions take?

Please could you provide the costs recovered from Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wanderers for policing on their ‘footprint’ (i.e Special Policing Services) for the four separate time periods below?
Who is the current area commander for Birmingham Central policing area?
Please provide me with figures of income your force has received – or has agreed to receive – from football clubs to cover match day policing in the 2018/19 season, the 2019/20 season and the 2020/21 season.
