§ Mr. DAYasked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been drawn to the fact that the Paris police authorities are introducing an electric light to be worn in the cap-peak of traffic police officers; and whether this has been considered for the Metropolitan traffic police?
§ Mr. CLYNESThe Commissioner of Police informs me that the suggestion that a light should be carried on the helmet of traffic police officers has been considered, but it has not been deemed advisable to adopt it. Local authorities have installed spot lights at a number of traffic points, and this is regarded as the most satisfactory way of making the police officer easily visible.
