HC Deb 28 July 1977 vol 936 c425W
Mr. Ted Fletcher

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will list the dates on which police on duty at Messrs. Grunwick entered the works premises for their tea break.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

The Commissioner's inquiries can trace only one such incident. In the early part of June, two constables who were standing just inside a garage entrance at the Cobbold Road side to avoid the rain, were given a cup of tea by a Grunwick employee. This was seen by a senior officer at the time, who gave instructions that it should not occur again.
