HC Deb 11 April 1905 vol 144 c1273
MR. CATHCART WASON

I beg to ask the Lord-Advocate if in the case of a procurator-fiscal calling in outside medical opinion from a distance without reasonable grounds for such action, he will be compelled to pay out of his own pocket the extra expenses thereby entailed on the county.

*MR. SCOTT DICKSON

This is a legal question to which it is impossible to give a sufficient reply except with reference to the precise facts of a particular case.

MR. CATHCART WASON

Will the right hon. Gentleman inquire into the facts of a case if I send them to him?

*MR. SCOTT DICKSON

Yes, Sir.
