HC Deb 25 November 1986 vol 106 c160W
Mr. Ron Lewis

asked the Attorney-General if he will prosecute the authors and publishers of the book, "Comic Relief" for blasphemy.

The Attorney-General

The investigation of any alleged criminal offence is a function of the police. If the hon. Member considers that an offence of blasphemy may have been committed the proper course is for him to refer the matter to the police so that if, after proper investigation, it is appropriate a report may be submitted to the Crown Prosecution Service.
