§ Lord HUGH CECILMay I ask the Home Secretary a question of which I have given him private notice: Whether his attention has been called to certain irregularities alleged with regard to the case of Mrs. Pethick Lawrence?
§ Mr. McKENNAMy attention has been called to this case. The Noble Lord only gave me notice at twenty-five minutes past three, and, in consequence, I have not had an opportunity of consulting my advisers as to how the case stands.
§ Lord HUGH CECILWill the right hon. Gentleman make inquiries?
§ Mr. McKENNAI have already done so.
