Acting Capt. Supt. of Police,
I beg to reply as follows to the queries.
Signing of Summonses. The reason for taking out a summons ap-
pears on the face of the summons itself. I hold that the latter
is justified if a conviction is obtained. From an inspection
of the summons books it will be seen that it is very unusual for
one to be dismissed. It is therefore proved to the satisfaction
of the Magistrate that a breach of the law has been committed.
The chief difficulty as regards making enquiries previous to signing a summons, is that it is impossible to bring them to a satisfactory conclusion without the defendant's story being heard
as well. To do this is obviously impracticable, and would be
usurping the functions of the Magistrates. The Police Officer
who applies for a summons, can almost invariably make out a reasonable case. The rights and wrongs can really only be judged by listening to the defendant's story as well. If a summons ap- peared on the face of it to be frivolous or malicious I should
of course refuse to sign it. I always inspect the Summons' Books, which are brought to me with the summonses. I understand that they were introduced in order to prevent Police taking out un- necessary summonses so as to enable them to 'loaf' at the Folice
Court.
If the Government desires people to be warned in respect of the more trivial offences, such as obstruc- tion, this could of course be done. Instructions could also be given to the Police not to enforce the law, in these cases, too strictly. I have, however, never received any instructions to
this effect.
Patrols.
I have always performed the number of patrols laid down in the Regulation Book and generally a good
many
