Mr. Wheeler

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, in regard to each of the 25 police killings in England and Wales since 1965, what the method of killing was; whether any were attributed to acts of terrorism; whether the alleged killer was arrested and what was the subsequent court disposal; and where there was no arrest whether the alleged offender is known and still sought.

Mr. Mayhew

[pursuant to his reply, 24 March 1982, c. 185]: There were 24 offences currently recorded as homicide over the period 1965 to 1981 where the victim was a police officer on duty. The information requested is given in the following table:

the following table. As I said in my previous answer—[Official Report, Vol. 17, c. 27]—to my hon. Friend, benefits under the Iron and Steel Employees Readaptation Benefits Scheme are paid to eligible steel-workers not steel companies.
