HC Deb 16 March 1972 vol 833 c155W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether in view of the fact that the official representative of the Police Federation has complained of the dangers of men of doubtful character being employed in security firms and of some firms using police uniforms and arms which are not supplied to the police forces, he will now cause an investigation to be made with a view to initiating a licensing system of these private security firms.

Mr. Sharples

No.
