HC Deb 15 July 1975 vol 895 cc428-9W
Mr. Townsend

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many chief constables on the east coast of Great Britain have some degree of responsibility for Great Britain's offshore energy installations.

Dr. Summerskill

Four: those of Norfolk, Suffolk, Grampian and Tayside. Since 1967 it has been arranged that police responsibility for offshore energy installations should lie with the force for the area from which the installation is operated.
