HC Deb 28 July 1977 vol 936 c581W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will give the total number of persons arrested at the Grunwick picket line until 21st July 1977.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply which I gave to Questions by the hon. Member for Thanet, East (Mr. Aitken) and others on 14th July—[Vol. 935, c. 759–760]. Since 13th July, the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis tells me that there have been no arrests in connection with picketing at the Grunwick factory.
