HC Deb 13 March 1984 vol 56 c80W
Mr. Peter Bruinvels

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will publish in the Official Report the figures relating to deaths in police custody during 1983.

Mr. Hurd

Information on deaths in police custody is published annually in a Home Office statistical bulletin and in the reports of Her Majesty's Chief Inspector of Constabulary and the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis. It is hoped to publish in early May the statistical bulletin giving information for 1983.
