§ MR. FETHERSTONHAUGHI beg to ask Mr. Chancellor of the Exchequer whether it is intended to prosecute any person under the criminal law in connection with the whisky frauds at Tullamore; can he say who was or were the person or persons who profited by said frauds, and the estimated amount of such profit; and has anything been recovered from him, her, or them as the result of civil proceedings.
§ MR. ASQUITHThere is not at present sufficient evidence to warrant a prosecution under the criminal law. The second part of the Question relates to matters in regard to which I have at present no definite information. Nothing as yet has been recovered as the result of the civil proceedings.
