THE SECRETARY OF STATE (Mr. MATTHEWS) (Birmingham, E.)

On July 6 he was suspended, pending the inquiry—after the Commissioner had received Mrs. Bowman's letter.

MR. H. J. WILSON:

Yesterday?

MR. MATTHEWS

Yes.

I beg to give Notice that in Committee of Supply, or on some other suitable occasion, I will call attention to the whole question of the conduct and administration of the Metropolitan Police.
