HC Deb 21 July 1988 vol 137 c758W
66. Dr. Michael Clark

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what guidelines he has recently issued on the application of wheel clamping in the Metropolitan police area; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

None. However, I understand that the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis issued revised force instructions on 1 July 1987 and introduced revised training courses in the same month. Both emphasise the need for police officers authorising clamping to do so with discretion, common sense, and good judgment.
