HC Deb 21 May 1896 vol 41 cc74-5
MR. PICKERSGILL

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether he will lay upon the Table the latest reports of the Inspectors of Prisons and Prison Governors respecting those Court Houses in which the accommodation provided for prisoners continues to be defective.

SIR MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY

I think it would be undesirable to lay these reports, which are of a confidential character, on the Table.

MR. PICKERSGILL

Will the right hon. Gentleman give the names?

SIR MATTHEW WHITE RIDLEY

I object to give the names.
