HC Deb 12 June 1969 vol 784 c289W
55. Mr. Deedes

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what advice he has sent to police forces on the subject of informers; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Callaghan

As the right hon. Gentleman will know, it is not the practice to disclose particulars in an operational police matter of this kind, but I am sending him a copy of a public statement that I issued at the time.
