HC Deb 26 March 1858 vol 149 c812
MR. BRADY

said, he wished to ask if it be the intention of Her Majesty's Government to institute any criminal proceedings against the Directors of the Western Bank of Scotland.

THE LORD ADVOCATE

The only answer I have it in my power to give the hon. Member is, that there is not at present before me any evidence whatever to justify such a course; and I may add, that I am not in possession of any information that leads me to suppose that such materials exist.
