§ MR. PICKERSGILLI beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether Lord William Nevill was allowed one additional hour's exercise per diem during his stay at Wormwood Scrubbs Prison, and whether he has escaped further solitary confinement by his removal to Parkhurst Prison; and will he state how many of the prisoners sentenced at the same Sessions of the Central Criminal Court, along with Lord William Nevill, have received similar indulgences?
§ THE SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE HOME DEPARTMENTThis prisoner was, on ten days, while at Wormwood Scrubbs, allowed an additional hour's exercise on the recommendation of the medical officer. His removal to Parkhurst was also on the recommendation of the medical officer, and he is at present in the hospital there. If, however, he is discharged from hospital, he will undergo his separate confinement. I cannot give the information asked for in the second paragraph of the Question, but the course taken in this case is not at all an uncommon one.
