Mr. Mullin
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to his answer of 3 March, Official Report, column 101, if he will now request the chief constable of Merseyside to make a special study on the number of officers engaged in obtaining admissions from convicted criminals.
Mr. Peter Lloyd
No. It is for the chief constable of Merseyside to decide whether to make a special study of the number of officers engaged in obtaining admissions from convicted criminals. I understand that the chief constable does not intend to carry out such a study at the moment.
