LORD BROCKWAY'S QUESTION: 6 MAY

1. I notice that the answer that you have submitted does not directly answer Lord Brockway's question. There may be a reason for this, but unless there is, I think that the answer should probably read like this:

#1 Up to 21 April 1975, 1389 investigations had been launched by the Independent Commission Against Corruption. The ICAC have recommended action to the Attorney General in ☀ cases. The Attorney General has agreed to prosecution) in 168 cases and refused it in one case. X cases are currently under consideration by the Attorney General."

169

prosecution

The missing figure is of course the number of cases still under consideration by the Attorney General on 21 April. I imagine that it may be necessary to get this from Hong Kong.

1 May 1975
