HC Deb 22 June 1981 vol 7 c15W
Mr. Marlow

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will give details of the racial incidents, setting out in each case the severity, nature and date of the incidents, that he took into account in his decision to give consent to a ban on marches in Coventry.

Mr. Whitelaw

No. It would not be appropriate for me to set out in detail the various considerations which the chief officer of police put before the city council and me when seeking the banning order.
