HC Deb 13 July 1994 vol 246 cc658-9W
Ms Ruddock

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what assessment has been made by his Department of the effect of the introduction of red routes in parts of London on the incidence of crime locally.

Mr Norris

[holding answer 5 July 1994]: I have been asked to reply.

No specific assessment has been made, but there is no reason why red route controls should lead to any increase in crime whatever.
