MR. LYON PLATFAIRasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department, Whether there is any difficulty in giving similar information in the Judicial Statistics of Scotland to that contained in the Returns for England and Ireland as to the birthplaces and state of education of prisoners in Scotland?
MR. ASSHETON CROSS, in reply, said, that if the right hon. Member would look this year at the official statistics for Scotland, pages 48 and 49, he would find his Question to some extent anticipated. The only difficulty was as to the birthplace; but if that information could be obtained in another year, he would take care that it should be given.
