HC Deb 09 February 1972 vol 830 c377W
Mr. Ewing

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will call for reports from chief constables as to what instructions have been issued to police forces in Scotland in relation to policing the miners' strike.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

No. I do not think such action is necessary. I am confident that the police are fully aware of their responsibilities in relation to any industrial dispute.
