HC Deb 29 October 1987 vol 121 c376W
Mr. Bermingham

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if all interviews and questioning that takes place in police stations will be subject to the Police and Criminal Evidence Act codes of practice.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

The provisions of the code of practice for the detention, treatment, and questioning of persons by police officers relate primarily to the questioning of persons suspected of an offence and who are detained in police custody. All such interviews must be conducted in accordance with the code's provisions.
