HC Deb 11 February 1926 vol 191 cc1231-2
43. Mr. CHARLES EDWARDS

asked the Home Secretary whether he has received a letter from the Monmouthshire County Council urging the necessity of establishing appeal tribunals for the police forces of the country, such officers when appealing to have the right to be represented by a legal or other representative; and will he state the policy of his Department in regard to this matter?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

I have received the letter to which the hon. Member refers. A scheme for the grant of an appeal in certain classes of cases has been prepared, and I am now considering whether it is such that I could recommend it to Parliament.
