HC Deb 29 April 1974 vol 872 c368W
Mr. Money

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, bearing in mind the delays involved in publicising recent thefts of works of art, he will suggest to police authorities that they should take immediate action in publicising full details of any loss incurred.

Mr. Alexander W. Lyon

The investigation of thefts is a matter for chief officers of police. I am not aware of any general problem of the kind mentioned by the hon. Member, but if he has any particular instances in mind perhaps he will let me have details.
