§ Mr. John Harveyasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will instruct the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police to consult British Railways concerning the possibility of installing radio telephone sets in the drivers' cabs of trains operating in the Metropolitan Police area so that hooliganism and similar dangers to train services can be reported for prompt police action.
§ Mr. George ThomasThe policing of British Railways is primarily a matter for the British Transport police, who work closely with the Commissioner, and other chief officers of police, as necessary. My right hon. and learned Friend is accordingly bringing the hon. Member's suggestion to the notice of the Railways Board.
