HC Deb 17 January 2000 vol 342 cc318-9W
Mr. Gordon Prentice

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many of the recommendations of the Association of Chief Police Officers' report of September 1998 on police pursuit driving have been implemented; and if he will make a statement. [104846]

Mr. Boateng

I understand that most forces have adopted the majority of the 33 recommendations in the Association of Chief Police Officers report "Police Pursuit Driver Training". The recommendations which had to be taken forward on a national basis are well advanced. National standardised police pursuit driver training courses will be available by early summer 2000.
