HC Deb 13 February 1969 vol 777 c368W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why, in view of the need to increase the manpower and salaries in the police force, he will not establish a police-controlled security corps on a fee-paying basis to supplement the revenue to the police.

Mr. Elystan Morgan

I do not think it would be right, even if it were practicable, for police forces to go into business in the manner suggested by my hon. Friend, which would take them well beyond the limits of police responsibility.
