§ Mr. Garro Jonesasked the Home Secretary how many cases of alleged larceny or robbery from motor-cars in the W.1 district were reported to the police in 1935 and 1936 and up to the latest convenient date in 1937; and in how many such cases was a charge brought in the corresponding periods?
§ Mr. LloydIf the hon. Member is referring to the W.1, postal district I cannot give the figures for which he asks as that district does not correspond with police areas. In the four police areas which correspond approximately, the number of thefts from unattended vehicles which were reported in 1935 was 1,203; in 1936, 1,430; and in the first eleven months of this year 1,315. The corresponding number of arrests was 87, 70 and 87.
