§ 13. Mr. HACKINGasked the Home Secretary whether he will state the total number of mechanically-propelled vehicles at present attached to the Metropolitan Police force?
§ Mr. CLYNESThe number, including prison vans, is 394.
§ Mr. HACKINGAm I to understand that 60 people and two repair garages are required to look after such a small number of vehicles, and does not that show that there must be a large number of accidents due to careless driving?
§ Mr. CLYNESThe right hon. Gentleman may draw his own conclusions, but I have given the figures in reply to the question.
§ Mr. CLYNESI should require notice of that question.
