§ MR. PATRICK O'BRIEN (Kilkenny)I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether Mr. Edward Ivory, an American citizen, who was imprisoned in London for four months, has made a claim on the Government for damages for false imprisonment; and whether this claim has yet reached the Government; and, if so, what action the Government intend to take in the matter.
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYNo such claim as that to which the hon. Member refers has been received at the Foreign Office.
