That a sum, not exceeding £69,883, be granted to Her Majesty, to complete the sum necessary to defray the Charge which will come in course of payment during the year ending on the 31st day of March 1896, for the Expenses of the General Prisons Board in Ireland, and of the Prisons under their control, and of the Registration of Habitual Criminals,
§ Dr. TANNERwished to put one or two practical points. One was, that prisons should be provided with a covered exercise ground. He thought the shelter ought to be extended. He was talking only of the gaols where he had been the guest of the right hon. Gentleman the First Lord of the Treasury. Dr. Farrell was one of the late members of the Prisons Board in Ireland, and was now connected with the asylum, and he hoped the right hon. Gentleman would communicate with him on the subject.
§ MR. GERALD BALFOURI shall be very happy to call the attention of the Prisons Board to the hon. Member's point.
§ Resolution agreed to.
