§ MR. FIELD (Dublin, St. Patrick's)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland will he state on what grounds the regulation is maintained that the Kilmainham Prison warders are not allowed to wear their own private clothes when off duty?
§ THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. J. MORLEY,) Newcastle-upon-TyneI am informed that no difference whatever exists between the case of Kilmainham Prison warders and that of warders employed in other prisons in regard to their being required to wear their uniforms. Warders are permitted to wear their plain clothes when off duty provided reasonable grounds are shown for seeking the permission.
