§ Mr. Parryasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will publish in the Official Report the names of organisations which have made representations concerning the free Phil Robins campaign and the use of CS gas in Liverpool during the Toxteth disturbances in July 1981.
§ Mr. WhitelawNo organisation has made representations to me concerning Mr. Robins' convictions. The Merseyside Community Relations Council and the Liverpool Graphical Society have suggested a public inquiry into the use of CS in Toxteth on 6 July 1981.
§ Mr. Parryasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what further representations he has received concerning the use of CS gas in Liverpool during the Toxteth disturbances in July 1981.
§ Mr. WhitelawSince the replies that I gave on 27 July to two questions from the hon. Member I have received 13 letters about or in support of a request for a public inquiry, including letters from eight other hon. Members; and the hon. Member for Birkenhead (Mr. Field) has asked a question about such an inquiry, to which I replied on 19 October.
