HC Deb 13 February 1908 vol 184 c210
SIR WILLIAM BULL (Hammersmith)

I beg to ask the Secretary to the Treasury what the procedure of the Criminal Appeal Act has cost the country in shorthand writers' fees for reporting all possible cases for appeal up to the end of January, 1908; and if a Supplementary Estimate will be presented.

MR. J. A. PEASE (Essex, Saffron Walden)

No cost has yet been incurred, as the Act does not apply to any persons convicted before 18th April, 1908.

MR. AUSTEN CHAMBERLAIN () Worcestershire, E.

Are any more Supplementary Estimates to be submitted?

MR. J. A. PEASE
