HC Deb 27 June 1921 vol 143 c1799
89. Lieut.-Colonel ARCHER-SHEE

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether interned Sinn Feiners, many of whom are suspected to be murderers, are being treated as political prisoners, and that in many cases they are being allowed to receive luxurious food from the Irish White Cross Society, although they are receiving at the same time the same rations as British soldiers and officers; and whether this practice can be discontinued?

Sir H. GREENWOOD

Persons interned in internment camps are being well treated, receiving as they do a good daily ration. The Commander-in-Chief has not hitherto prevented parcels of luxuries in the way of food stuffs being sent to them.
