Lord Inglewood

asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many police officers with senior appointments as shown below, are holders of university degrees in forces under the Home Office or Scottish Office:

  1. (a) Chief constables or commissioners;
  2. (b) Deputy chief constables or deputy commissioners;
  3. (c) Chief commandants of special constables.

Lord Elton

In police forces in England, Scotland and Wales eight officers holding appointments of chief constable or commissioner and six in posts of deputy chief constable or deputy commissioner have university degrees. Information about chief commandants of the Special Constabulary is not held centrally and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
