	question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government what was the cost of the legal advice gained by the Metropolitan Police Service and Crown Prosecution Service which led to the policy of investigating the chant of "yids" by Tottenham Hotspur supporters by the Metropolitan Police Service prior to the Prime Minister's comments on the matter on 16 September 2013; and what was the cost of the advice gained after that date.
