§ Sir JAMES YOXALLasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will consider the desirability of submitting to His Majesty the King a proposal that the loyal devotion of the constabulary forces throughout the United Kingdom, and the exceptional duties cheerfully performed by them, should be recognised on the occasion of His Majesty's Coronation by presenting a special medal to all police officers who have served under the reigns of Queen Victoria, King Edward VII., and His Majesty King George?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI regret that I cannot make such a recommendation. The medals for the Metropolitan and City police will be given on account of the heavy extra duties to be performed at the Coronation by these forces.
