HC Deb 28 April 1898 vol 56 cc1358-9

MR. E. H. PICKERSGILL (Bethnal Green, S.W.)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will lay upon the Table the new labour price list which has been used since 1st April, 1897, as the basis of valuation of prison labour?

THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENT (Sir M. W. RIDLEY,) Lancashire, N., Blackpool

It would not be in the public interest to do this.
