HC Deb 19 July 1962 vol 663 c85W
59. Mr. D. Smith

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will instruct the Metropolitan Police to use safety belts on their official vehicles.

Mr. Brooke

The Commissioner of Police informs me that he is keeping the matter under review, but that he is not at present convinced that it would be appropriate to order the fitting and wearing of safety belts in Metropolitan police cars.
