§ Mr. Scott-Hopkinsasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many offenders have been shot dead by the police in the course of their felony since November 1965; and how many were shot dead in the eight years previous to November 1965.
§ Mr. CarlisleI regret that reliable statistics could be obtained only by asking individual forces to check their records for the past 16 years. I do not think this would be justified.
