HC Deb 21 June 1973 vol 858 cc173-4W
29. Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will make a statement on the investigations by the Metropolitan Police into evidence submitted to them that senior officers of that force have been involved in bribery connected with sexual offences, pornography and drugs.

Mr. Carlisle

The Commissioner informs me that he has arranged for the allegations which I believe the hon. Member has in mind to be investigated in accordance with Section 49 of the Police Act 1964 by a deputy assistant commissioner. I have no further statement to

if he will specify the tax reliefs comprised by the figures.

Mr. Nott

I will let the hon. Member have a reply as soon as possible.
