Lord Harris of Greenwich

asked Her Majesty's Government:What was the establishment of the British Railways police attached for service with London Transport on 1st January 1978, 1983 and 1987 respectively; and whether, and if so when, that unit was 1ast inspected by one of Her Majesty's Inspectors of Constabulary.

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of Transport
(Lord Brabazon of Tara)

The police establishment of the relevant division of the British Transport Police on these dates were:

197819831987
152270350
The latest full inspection of this division by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary took place between December 1979 and January 1980 as part of the inspection of the British Transport Police. I understand that arrangements are in hand for a full independent inspection of the British Transport Police later this year by Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary.
