HC Deb 28 May 1971 vol 818 cc254-5W
Mr. Alfred Morris

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what consideration the Police Advisory Board has given to police uniforms; when this matter was first considered; what action has been taken in consequence of the board's deliberations; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Maudling

I understand that in March, 1969, the Police Advisory Board asked that trials should be initiated in various parts of the country. The results of the first full year's trial are now being studied and will be reported to the board in July.
