Mr. Farr
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will list all the changes in law, classification of offences, recording practice and statistical methods, which may have affected the figures relating to the numbers of indictable offences in which firearms were (a) involved and (b) used during the period 1965–77, and indicate the effect of each change on apparent trends.

I shall write to the hon. Member.
