HC Deb 03 March 1924 vol 170 cc975-6
64. Mr. HAYES

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies how many members of the subordinate staff of the Kingston Penitentiary, Jamaica, are without official quarters; and whether, in such cases, he can grant concessions similar to those granted to the police of Jamaica?

Mr. THOMAS

As regards the first part of the question, it will be necessary to consult the Governor of Jamaica, who is being asked to supply the desired particulars; as regards the second part, the hon. Member will appreciate that the matter is one for the local Legislature, but the suggestion shall be put before the Governor.
