HC Deb 17 December 1976 vol 922 c859W
Mr. Eldon Griffiths

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why, having requested comments from the Police Federation on his draft Police Federation (Amendment) Regulations during the early months of 1976 and having received these comments on 26th April, no response was made by his Department, despite a reminder, until 30th November.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

There have had to be consultations on legal and other aspects, and I hope that an early meeting with the Federation can be arranged to discuss and settle them.
