HC Deb 30 December 1912 vol 46 c9
12. Mr. WEDGWOOD

asked whether the Disciplinary Board has yet made any Report on the case of the constables who are said to have assaulted Chapman; and whether the Board would have inquired into the case if the attention of Parliament had not been called to the case by reports in the Press?

Mr. McKENNA

As I stated in answer to a question by the hon. Member for Deptford on the 19th of this month, the case has been referred to the Director of Public Prosecutions, and the disciplinary inquiry has in consequence been suspended. The answer to the second part of the question is in the affirmative.
