§ Mr. Alan Clarkasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the designation of the police department that deals with complaints against the police force; how many officers are presently engaged in that department; and what proportion this represents of total CID strength.
§ Dr. SummerskillThe investigation of complaints against the police is not restricted to officers of a particular department. A high proportion of complaints is investigated by divisional officers. No central record is kept of the number of officers engaged on such investigations at any one time.
