§ MR. CLAUDE HAYI beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will take steps to appoint a Select Committee to inquire into the alleged grievances of prison warders, and grant to them the right of federation in the same way as now enjoyed by the postal employees.
§ * MR. GLADSTONENo grievances of prison warders have yet been brought to my notice. When they are, I will, of course, give them my consideration. As to the second part of the Question, a similar inquiry has been put to me by two other hon. Members, and I should like to defer my Answer for further consideration.
