HC Deb 25 January 1979 vol 961 c197W
14. Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many alleged shoplifting offences were reported to the police during the month prior to 25 December; how many led to prosecutions by the police; and how many by shopkeepers.

Dr. Summerskill

I regret that this information is not available and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost.
