57. Mr. Dixon

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will publish in the Official Report a statement of the number of police officers per 100,000 population in each police force area in England and Wales in 1985.

Mr. Giles Shaw

I refer the hon. Member to the reply given to a Question from my hon. Friend the Member for Swindon (Mr. Coombs) on 27 February 1986, at columns655–58, which set out the ratio of population to police officer for each police force in England and Wales on 31 December 1985.
