There is no cost to the public purse. All additional costs are met in full by the respective commercial event organisers. Escort Officers respond to a call from their military chain of command to volunteer for the task. The number of military Escort Officers used to chaperone foreign delegations at UK sponsored defence exhibitions in each of the last five years is shown in the table below.<table><tbody><tr><td>Exhibition</td><td>Year</td><td>Number of military Escort Officers</td></tr><tr><td>Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI)</td><td>2013</td><td>98</td></tr><tr><td>Farnborough International Airshow (FIA)</td><td>2014</td><td>59</td></tr><tr><td>Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI)</td><td>2015</td><td>94</td></tr><tr><td>Farnborough International Airshow (FIA)</td><td>2016</td><td>54</td></tr><tr><td>Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI)</td><td>2017</td><td>79</td></tr></tbody></table>
