HC Deb 08 December 1978 vol 959 cc118-9W
Mr. Terry Walker

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many police stations have been closed in the county of Avon area over the past 15 years.

Dr. Summerskill:

The chief constable informs me that, as far as it is possible to tell from records kept by the Avon and Somerset constabulary and those inherited from the four forces which previously policed the area which is now the county of Avon, 43 police stations have been closed in this area in the past 15 years.
