HC Deb 03 December 1973 vol 865 c303W
Mr. McManus

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what rules there are relating to the information a Member of Parliament is entitled to receive when inquiring about a constituent who has been arrested.

Mr. David Howell

None. But it is the practice of the police to be as helpful as the circumstances permit to a Member of Parliament who inquires about a constituent who has been arrested.
