§ 28. Mr. Roseasked the Attorney-General whether he will instigate proceedings for conspiracy to defraud, electoral fraud, fraud, assault, action likely 237 to cause a breach of the peace, insulting and threatening behaviour, etc., under the Firearms Act and the Race Relations Act, 1965, against Messrs. Hesketh, King and Beech of Manchester, in view of the evidence supplied to him by the hon. Member for Manchester, Blackley.
§ The Attorney-GeneralInvestigations into these matters are proceeding.
§ Mr. RoseIt would be wrong to comment on the criminal aspects of this matter now, but will the Attorney-General bear in mind that the activities of these people, both in trying to prevent local democracy and in damaging race and community relations in Manchester, are giving grave concern to many people in the Manchester area?
§ The Attorney-GeneralI am going to say nothing save that the investigations are proceeding.
