HC Deb 19 June 1975 vol 893 cc473-4W
1. Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will have discussions with chief constables with a view to arranging for the display in every police station, including rooms used for interrogation, of a poster setting out clearly, and briefly, the provision in the Judges' Rules under which a citizen shall have access to legal advice when under arrest for any alleged offence.

Mr. Alexander W. Lyon

The administrative directions accompanying the Judges' Rules already make provision for the display of notices describing the rights and facilities available to persons in custody.
