HC Deb 15 May 1991 vol 191 c186W
Mr. Vaz

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement on Government plans for a new police station at Hamilton, Leicester.

Mr. Peter Lloyd

Proposals by the Leicestershire police authority for a new sub-divisional police headquarters at Hamilton have been approved for planning purposes and I understand that a site has now been purchased.

Provision for the police building programme is fully committed up to 1993–94. We shall decide later this year which schemes on the planning list should be authorised to start in 1994–95. The Hamilton police station is one of the schemes which will be considered, but there can be no guarantee that it will be given a start date.
