Q.

A.

Would you agree it would be fair description of duties of Assistant Superintendent of Police/Division are largely

administrative?

Yes. I would agree that was fair comment.

In fact actual raiding of vice dens etc. would not be his responsibility unless he was specifically ordered to? Not strictly true. A lot of the duties and responsibilities are at the discretion of Divisional Superintendent to ensure that Assistant Superintendent of Police/Division knows the policies and gains necessary experience in the vice field. Duties of Assistant Divisional Superintendent are set out in Police General Orders at Chapter 3.36. Only reference to conducting raids is at L?

A.

And possibly para. 6.

Q•

Are these the ones you produced- when did they come into

force?

A.

Orders amended from time to time, I have not got exact date when they amended this particular order.

Q.

Would one of the officers responsible for carrying out raids on vice establishments be the Divisional Detective Inspector?

A.

He is Chief Inspector i/c of Criminal Investigation in

division.

Is he responsible for carrying out raids on vice

establishments?
