§ Mr. WilshireTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department (1) what plans he has to replace Staines police station; and whether he will make a statement;
(2) whether he will make it his policy that any new police station for Staines will be sited in the town centre.
§ Mr. Douglas HoggI understand from the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis that Staines is high on the priority list of police stations to be replaced, but that no firm date for doing so has yet been set. The location of the new station will be determined after a thorough assessment of operational requirements and available sites.
