HC Deb 01 November 1945 vol 415 cc756-7W
Sir G. Fox

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in view of the increased smuggling by air of dutiable goods, contraband and currency, he will consider the formation of flying police attached to the C.I.D.

Mr. Ede

Counter measures against smuggling must be taken on the ground, and as at present advised, I do not think that there would be any justification for such an innovation as that suggested by the hon. Member.
