To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will publish the Home Office's guidelines on the use of informants.
Mr. Peter Lloyd
General guidance about the use of informants by the police is included in the consolidated circular to the police on crime and kindred matters, at paragraph 1.92. Similar guidance about the use of resident informants is contained in Home Office circular 9/92. Copies of these circulars are in the Library.
