HC Deb 17 November 1977 vol 939 c291W
12. Mr. Ashley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what further steps he is taking to combat vandalism.

Dr. Summerskill

It was generally agreed at a conference my right hon. Friend held in April that measures to counter vandalism are best planned and organised at local level. My Department is continuing work on research, publicity and the co-ordination of information, and is in touch with other Government Departments for those purposes.
