36. Mr. Arnold Shaw

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what reasons there were for expecting disorder in the vicinity of a private meeting held at the Library Hall, Barkingside, Ilford, on Tuesday, 13th January, which necessitated deploying 104 members of the Metropolitan Police Force and taking them from their normal duties.

Mr. Callaghan

There had been a large militant demonstration in the vicinity of a similar meeting on the previous evening.
