HC Deb 13 February 1969 vol 777 cc358-9W
53. Mr. Scott-Hopkins

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will obtain a report from the Chief Constable as to how many cases of false arrest were made in the previous 12 months in Derbyshire; how this compares with the national figure for the same act; and what compensation was paid.

Mr. Elystan Morgan

There are no statistics available of the kind the hon. Gentleman has in mind but the Chief Constable of Derbyshire tells me that he is not aware of any such case in his district in the period stated.
