HC Deb 05 May 1975 vol 891 c323W
Mr. Steen

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department to what extent the police have been concerned with incidents involving physical violence, illegal picketing, and acts of sabotage in connection with the electricians' dispute in the housing department of Liverpool City Council; and if he will make a statement.

Dr. Summerskill

The Chief Constable of Merseyside tells us that the police advised the pickets of their responsibilities when the strike started. No complaints have been received by the police about the activities of the pickets, and no incidents of the kind referred to by the hon. Member have come to the notice of the police.
