Mr. Bowen Wells
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will publish a synopsis of relevant passages from the report of the assistant chief constable of Northamptonshire, Mr. Boothby, on the case of Mr. Paul Cleeland.
Mr. Mayhew
No. It is a general principle of long standing that police reports are confidential and are not disclosed either wholly or in part.
