HC Deb 19 December 1934 vol 296 c1148
44. Mr. THORNE

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he intends recognising in some way the services that were given by the police officers and constables who were on duty at the Royal Wedding on 29th November?

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

I am not sure what form of recognition the hon. Member may contemplate, but I may perhaps remind him that the services of the police on the occasion of the Royal Wedding have already been the subject of a special message of appreciation and thanks from His Majesty the King.

Mr. THORNE

Will the right hon. Gentleman not consider giving some recognition to the police in the shape of a monetary consideration?
