Regulations which may have been laid down for the discipline and
management of the Metropolitan Police Force or any other information

for the management of the Police Force
in this Colony.
I regret to say that this Force is greatly deficient in that
systematic and detailed organization which is so necessary to the
efficiency of such a body, and in arranging the details of which it
is in my opinion most desirable to have the benefit of practical
rules.
I would earnestly request that the information sought may befurnished
furnished as early as may be convenient.
