HC Deb 08 May 1933 vol 277 c1218
35. Mr. STOURTON

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department to what extent he intends to implement the recommendations contained in the report of the Metropolitan Police Commissioner with regard to discipline and promotion to the higher ranks?

The SECRETARY of STATE for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Sir John Gilmour)

It would not be possible to give this information within the limits of a reply to a Parliamentary Question, but, as I informed the House on the 4th instant, I propose to issue shortly a White Paper on this subject.

Mr. STOURTON

Can the right hon. Gentleman say approximately when legislation will be introduced?

Sir J. GILMOUR

I hope very shortly.
