40. Captain HEILGERS

asked the Home Secretary whether he will issue instructions for the prevention of the increasing practice of ovErieading horse-drawn vehicles in the Metropolitan Police area?

Mr. HACKING

The police have standing instructions to look out for cases of this kind, but the Commissioner informs me that he has not received any indications that there has been an increase. If, however, my hon. and gallant Friend has any particular cases in mind, I shall be happy to investigate them.

Mr. SMITHERS

Was Hyperion attached to one of these vehicles?
