HC Deb 13 June 1979 vol 968 cc225-6W
Mr. Rooker

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what further representations have been made to his Department on behalf of Police Constable W. J. Glastonbury since the Adjournment debate initiated by the hon. Member for Birmingham, Perry Barr on 1 April 1977; if he remains satisfied with the response to these representations; if any replies to these representations are still outstanding; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Brittan

Further representations in support of Constable Glastonbury's claim for compensation in respect of the period during which he was imprisoned for offences of which his convictions were subsequently quashed by the Court of Appeal were received in September 1977 and March and April 1978. Repre- sentations about the police investigations that led to his prosecution were made in November 1978 and in April this year. A final reply to the latter representations is outstanding. I am satisfied that all these representations were, or are being, properly considered.
