HC Deb 22 April 1985 vol 77 c310W
Mr. Chris Smith

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many armoured vehicles the Metropolitan police force has; what types of vehicles they are and how many there are of each type; and on what occasions during the past 12 months each type has been used.

Mr. Giles Shaw

I understand from the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis that the force has 15 armoured motor cars and that the majority are in regular use.
