HC Deb 09 December 1968 vol 775 cc33-4W
96. Mr. Berry

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department by what authority drivers of motor vehicles and pedal cyclists are required to stop by police officers not in uniform.

Mr. Elystan Morgan

Section 223 of the Road Traffic Act 1960 confers power only on a police constable in uniform; but other provisions, for example Section 14 of that Act, are not restricted in that way. Perhaps the hon. Member will let me know what circumstances he has in mind.
