§ Mr. Pardoeasked the Attorney-General if he will specify the details of his offer of security of employment and complete confidentiality to local government officers who may wish to assist the police with their inquiries into cases of alleged corruption in local government, and the powers under which he has made this offer.
§ The Attorney-GeneralI made no such offer. It was indicated to me that some persons were reluctant to volunteer information to the local police, and I said that, if that was so, anyone who preferred to do so might send to me any information which was relevant to the police investigations now in progress. Such information and its source would be restricted to the investigating police and would be used solely for the purpose of 187W their investigation and for any subsequent criminal proceedings.
