The request was partially successful.

Dear Greater Manchester Police,

For the security vetting/accreditation procedure carried out for the Labour Autumn Conference 2012, please can you list the number of people who:

1) Applied to be accredited...

2) ...and were then approved by the police

3) ...but who the police recommended be refused entry...
a) ...and the party permitted entry anyway.
b) ...and the party did not permit entry.

4) ...but did not complete the process...
a) ...because the police did not complete the process in time.
b) ...because the individual did not complete the process. (e.g. documents still pending by conference date, or they explicitly withdrew)

For each of the above, please break down if possible the number of people who applied by category, e.g. Members/Party Staff, Media, Exibitors etc.

5) Please also supply:
a) The actual or estimated cost of the vetting process.
b) The source of funding for this process

Yours faithfully,

Dear Zoe O'Connell,

I write in connection with your request for information which was received
by Greater Manchester Police today.

Your request will now be considered in accordance with the Freedom of
Information Act 2000 (the Act). You will receive a response within the
statutory timescale of 20 working days as defined by the Act, subject to
the information not being exempt or containing a reference to a third
party.
In some circumstances Greater Manchester Police may be unable to achieve
this deadline.  If this is likely you will be informed and given a revised
time-scale at the earliest opportunity.
There may be a fee payable for the retrieval, collation and provision of
the information you request.  If this is the case you will be informed and
the 20 working day timescale will be suspended until we receive payment

unanswered.

Some requests may also require either full or partial transference to
another public authority in order to answer your query in the fullest
possible way. Again, you will be informed if this is the case.
