51. Mr. EDMUND HARVEYasked the Prime Minister whether he will take the opportunity presented by the emptiness of most of the prisons to institute a reform of the prison system; and whether he will appoint either a Royal Commission or Departmental Committee to deal with the question?
§ Mr. BRACEMy right hon. Friend has asked me to reply to this question. I do not think that the present time would be suitable for the discussion of a reform of the prison system.
