HC Deb 14 October 1976 vol 917 c153W
33. Mr. John Hunt

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if the Police Federation of England and Wales continues to refuse to negotiate its conditions of service through the Police Council; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

The Police Federation of England and Wales continues not to recognise the Police Council, but I met their representatives last week and I hope a solution to these problems will be found in due course.
