53. MARQUESS of TULLIBARDINE

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether A new site has yet been found for the Calton Gaol; and, if so, when will the work commence?

58. Mr. JAMES HOGGE

asked whether a site has now been chosen for the new prison; and, if so, whether he can make any statement as to its whereabouts?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

The subject of a new site has been receiving consideration, but I am not as yet in a position to make any statement in the matter.

MARQUESS of TULLIBARDINE

Is there any difficulty in getting money for the purpose?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

I am not in a position to answer that question.

Mr. HOGGE

Will the right hon. Gentleman be able to make any definite announcement on this particular subject-on the Scottish Estimates?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

I will try to do so.
