HC Deb 01 November 1999 vol 337 c39W
Mr. Corbyn

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what guidance is issued to Royal Ulster Constabulary officers on the circumstances in which the assistance of Army units should be sought in dealing with public order problems; and whether a copy of such guidance will be placed in the Library. [95364]

Mr. Ingram

[holding answer 26 October 1999]: Guidance is reviewed and issued annually in a Force Policy document. This is a confidential operational policing manual and it would therefore be inappropriate to place a copy in the Library.
