HC Deb 25 June 1980 vol 987 cc188-9W
Mr. Sproat

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what instructions he has given to police forces in Scotland regarding the publication of the book "Towards a Citizen's Militia"; and whether he or his officials have examined the contents of the book.

Mr. Younger

Neither I nor my officials have yet been able to study this book. It is for the Lord Advocate, acting through procurators fiscal and the police, to decide whether any action should be taken over it, and it is not for me to issue instructions to the police in matters of this kind.
