HC Deb 07 October 1909 vol 11 c2193
Mr. WATT

asked whether the newly-appointed chairman of the Prisons Commissioners acted for several years as chairman of the Lunacy Board in Scotland; if so, for how many years; and was it that service which rendered him suitable for his new appointment?

Mr. URE

As my hon. Friend was informed in reply to a similar question on 15th September, the new chairman of the Prison Commissioners was for 12 years chairman of the Lunacy Board. His qualifications for the new appointment were stated in the reply referred to.
