HC Deb 03 May 1906 vol 156 c731
MR. WATT

I beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland if he is aware that at a lecture on the Sunny Land of Spain, given in Barlinnie Prison, Glasgow, on February 9th, 1906, nineteen warders were detained on duty for two hours and twenty-five minutes, and thirty-five warders for forty-five minutes, without any financial allowance or without being granted leave of absence for an equal time; and if he will take steps to remedy this grievance of the warders.

MR. SINCLAIR

No financial allowance has been given. One warder has been allowed leave in lieu, but others have not asked for it. They will be granted leave in lieu when they apply for it.
