HC Deb 23 March 1893 vol 10 c902
MR. PAUL (Edinburgh, S.)

I beg to ask the Attorney General whether he has yet decided upon the expediency of taking proceedings against the witness for the respondent or other persons for perjury, subornation of perjury, or conspiracy in connection with the case of Howard de Walden v. Howard de Walden.

MR. ASQUITH

I have been asked to answer this question. The matter has been submitted to the Public Prosecutor, who having carefully considered all the circumstances does not feel himself justified in undertaking a prosecution.
