HC Deb 21 November 1963 vol 684 c116W
12. Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether Her Majesty's Inspectors of Constabulary are satisfied that police forces are provided with the clerical assistance and modern office equipment necessary to reduce officers' desk work to a minimum.

Mr. Brooke

Much progress has been made in improving the clerical assistance and office equipment available to the police, but a good deal more could be done in some areas. This is a matter to which H.M. Inspectors of Constabulary are paying special attention in the course of their visits.
