MR. LLOYD MORGAN (Carmarthen, W.)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the Governor and Matron of Her Majesty's Prison at Carmarthen are about to retire; and whether he will appoint as their successors persons who are able to speak the Welsh language?
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENTThe answer to the first paragraph is 637 in the affirmative. I am afraid I shall not be able to appoint a Welsh-speaking Governor, as there is no officer so qualified among those eligible for the promotion to the post. Efforts will be made to secure a Welsh-speaking Matron.
