HC Deb 17 December 1969 vol 793 cc362-3W
Mr. Maxwell-Hyslop

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will call for reports from chief constables, for each year 1965, 1966, 1967, 1968 and to date in 1969, on how many policeman-days have been used in policing political demonstrations.

Mr. Elystan Morgan

It would require too much time and expense to provide this information. In the Metropolitan Police District there were 393 demonstrations of all types in 1968 and 488 so far in 1969.
