§ MR. WOOD (Glasgow, St. Rollox)To ask the Secretary for Scotland is he aware that the new method of discharging prisoners from Barlinnie prison on the termination of their sentences is causing considerable annoyance in certain districts of Glasgow; and if he will give instructions to discontinue the new practice.
(Answered by Mr. Sinclair.) No representations on this subject, other than 1039 those made by the hon. Member, have reached me. I am communicating with the Prison Commissioners so that steps may be taken to arrange with the local authorities for the removal of any just cause of annoyance.
