HC Deb 17 November 1959 vol 613 c123W
121. Mr. Parker

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will arrange for better police patrol of the Dagenham area to prevent teen-age gangs from being a nuisance to the general public.

Mr. R. A. Butler

The disposition of the police in the Metropolitan Police District is a matter for the Commissioner. He is not aware of any special difficulty with young people in Dagenham, but he will be glad to look into any matters to which the hon. Member may wish to draw his attention.
