HC Deb 18 October 1966 vol 734 cc8-9W
Mr. John Lee

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement regarding the connection between the organisation of criminal activities in this country and in the Continent of Europe and, in particular, in Sicily.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

There is a constant exchange of information about criminal activities between the police of member countries of the International Criminal Police Organisation and particular attention is given to crime of an international nature by the Interpol Secretariat and at the Interpol General Assemblies. There is no evidence of any link between organised crime in this country and crime or criminals in Sicily.
