§ MR. PICKERSGILL (Bethnal Green, S.W.)I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury what amount (if any) it is intended to pay out of public money in respect of the costs of defending an action brought against the Governor of Ipswich Gaol for indignities inflicted upon an untried prisoner, in which action, at Suffolk Assizes on the 12th instant, the jury awarded the plaintiff £75 damages?
§ THE SECRETARY TO THE TREASURY (Mr. JACKSON, Leeds, N.)No application has yet been received by the Treasury for the payment of any money in respect of the costs referred to in the hon. Member's question.
