§ MR. SLOAN (Belfast, S.)I beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, as the results of inquiry in the case of Adolf Beck, he can state if it is intended to establish a Criminal Court of Appeal; and, if so, when.

This Bill will carry out the recommendations of the Master of the Rolls Committee as to legislation.
§ MR. SWIFT MACNEILLWhy was not this Bill introduced in this House? Why was it brought in in another place the Members of which are triable in a different way and not subject to this grievance?
