§ Sir D. Maxwell FyfeThe Association asked me to receive a deputation to discuss their application for representation on the Advisory Council of the National Police Fund and the provision made in the Police Pensions Regulations for awards to certain police widows I have informed the Association that, as regards the first point, application is being considered by the trustees of the Fund, and that in view of the answer which I gave to the hon. Member on 15th November. I do not think that any useful purpose would be served by my receiving a deputation.
