Hobnobbing with England manager Roy Hodgson at a Watford FC match, touring Warner Brothers Studios with the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and dining in five star restaurants are just some of the perks Hertfordshire’s Police and Crime Commissioner enjoyed in a single month.

Published details of gifts and hospitality accepted by David Lloyd between his election in November 2012 and the end of April show he accepted 37 offers of hospitality and declined 52.

In April alone, Mr Lloyd and a colleague watched the Hornets’ 0-0 draw with Cardiff from a corporate box at Vicarage Road as a guest of the club with food and drink provided.

While he was there Mr Lloyd tweeted a picture from the official @HertsPCC account of himself standing next to the England manager.

Later that same month he was at Warner Brothers Studios in Leavesden to meet Prince William and his wife as they officially opened the studios.

He also enjoyed dinners at Luton Hoo and Auberge Du Lac, courtesy of IT services company Capgemini and services giant Serco – a company which Mr Lloyd handed a £200 million contract to in 2010 in his role as Hertfordshire County Council’s executive member for resources.

In February, Mr Lloyd stayed in Hanbury Manor in Ware including dinner, breakfast as a guest of the hotel.

Among the events Mr Lloyd was unable to attend was the annual parade of the Hertsmere Volunteer Police Cadets. Mr Lloyd also declined two invitations to attend events organised by the Ben Kinsella Trust which campaigns against knife crime.

The PCC and Conservative county councillor, who was elected to the £75,000-a-year role last November, also declined an invitation from Labour MP and Home Affairs Select Committee chairman Keith Vaz.

The police and crime commissioner was not available for comment this week but a spokesman said: “Hertfordshire’s Police and Commissioner, David Lloyd, has an ambitious, expansive Police and Crime Plan that expressly seeks the input of the business community.

“He has been in conversation with a number of large local employers and businesses who have something to offer in the fight against crime, such as Watford FC whose charitable arm does a great deal of community work.

“In Watford, the commissioner has also been talking to local businesses and to the mayor about the role that responsible businesses can play in keeping Herts safe and how they can help to deliver his Police and Crime Plan, aptly entitled ‘Everybody’s Business’.

“Proposals in the plan recognise that Hertfordshire’s business community has a key part to play in exercising their corporate and social responsibilities and in delivering initiatives that contribute to making Hertfordshire an even safer county.”
