HC Deb 08 May 1967 vol 746 c169W
90. Mr. Lipton

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a further statement on the figures for convictions of drunkenness in the Metropolitan Police district during the calendar year 1966.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

I regret that the figures given for the Metropolitan Police District in my reply to a Question by my hon. Friend on 10th March were inaccurate. The correct provisional figures are as follows:

Total Under 18 18 and under 21
27,522 200 1,404

The total figure is still the lowest for some years, although the figures for the two younger age groups show a small increase.—[Vol. 743, c. 366.]
