Hi Kevin,

I apologise for the delay in responding, however it has taken some time to work out the full costs to be recovered by the different services. First of all I will set out the costs of licensing the event that will all be fully recovered through the Licence Fee.

Licensing - £4,712:59
Building Standards - £3,967:40
Health & Safety - £2,880:00
Noise Nuisance - £420:00
Food Safety - £600:00

The traffic management work is undertaken in partnership, however extra signs, coning, barriers etc. are all paid for by the event organiser and the work is undertaken by a Private Contractor.

It is very similar with litter, although the Council undertake their normal duties the Stadium (Don Valley) employ their own staff to clear up in and around the stadium.

Hope that this answers your query satisfactorily.

Regards
Steve
