Police Complaints Authority

HC Deb 16 April 1991 vol 189 c133W

Mr. Mans

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is making any changes in the membership of the Police Complaints Authority; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Kenneth Baker

The right hon. Roland Moyle is retiring from his post as deputy chairman of the Police Complaints Authority when his term of appointment expires on 28 April. I wish to take this opportunity to thank him for his service with the authority. His knowledge and experience have made an outstanding contribution to the establishment of the authority as a key part of the police complaints system.

Peter Moorhouse, who has been a member of the authority since July 1988, has accepted my invitation to succeed to the vacant deputy chairman post on 29 April.
