§ 105. Mr. FITZPATRICKasked the Home Secretary whether the case of Patrick J. O'Madden, an Irish prisoner at present detained in Wakefield prison, will be investigated at once with a view to his immediate release; whether Mr. O'Madden, since his incarceration, has been in the prison hospital suffering from illness; and whether, having regard to Mr. O'Madden's state of health, he will order his immediate release?
Mr. SAMUELThe case of Patrick J. O'Madden will be considered by the Advisory Committee at an early date.
