HC Deb 29 July 1998 vol 317 cc260-1W
Sir Nicholas Lyell

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will establish the numbers and rank of (a) police officers and (b) civilian staff employed in the administration support units of Bedfordshire Police Force. [52658]

Mr. Michael

I understand from the Chief Constable that there are 66 civilian staff employed in the Administration Support Units of the Bedfordshire Police. No police officers are deployed to these units. The Bedfordshire Police is restructuring its Criminal Justice Department, which will include the provision of new IT systems. These changes are likely to reduce the number of civilian staff employed in Administration Support Units.
