Mr. FREDERICK WHYTEasked the Secretary for Scotland whether he can give the reasons for the revival of the post of clerk in Scottish prisons; and whether he can state the essential differences between English and Scottish prison administration which make it impossible for him to place Scottish store warders in at least as favourable a position as their English colleagues?
