§ Mr. Maclean
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will make a statement on the progress of the Police Service Radio Communications Project. [73687]

§ Mr. Boateng
I am advised by the Police Information Technology Organisation that negotiations for the award of contract for the Public Service Radio Communications Project (PSRCP) are now entering their final stage, with the aim of completing them in the summer.
Lancashire Constabulary is the pilot force for the project. The pilot should be installed this year, with evaluation in early 2000.
