HC Deb 27 January 1942 vol 377 c569W
Sir W. Smiles

asked the Home Secretary whether he will consider arranging to make the telephone numbers of all central police stations 1212?

Mr. W. S. Morrison

Arrangements are already made to give police stations a common telephone number, so far as practical considerations permit. My hon. Friend will probably remember that local police stations can be obtained, in any emergency, by merely asking the exchange operator for police.
