HC Deb 17 November 1977 vol 939 cc299-300W
43. Mr. Carlisle

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many police officers left the Cheshire Constabulary prior to their completion of their full term of service during the first nine months of 1977; and what were the equivalent figures for 1974, 1975 and 1976.

Dr. Summerskill

The figures are as follows:

January to September Left below age limit Transferred to other forces in England and Wales
1975 70 4
1976 78 10
1977 112 5

Figures for 1974 are not comparable, on account of boundary changes at 1st April 1974.
