HC Deb 27 October 1932 vol 269 c1187W
Mr. BUCHANAN

asked the Home Secretary if he will arrange to hold a public inquiry into the conduct of the police in North Shields in breaking up the demonstration of the unemployed in that town?

Sir J. GILMOUR

I see no occasion for any action on my part. Any complaint regarding the conduct of the local police should in the first instance be addressed to the watch committee in whom the control of the force is vested by law.
