§ 19. Mr. Turtonasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies in how many African Colonies a Prisoners' Aid Society has been appointed or is established.
§ The Secretary of State for the Colonies (Colonel Oliver Stanley)Prisoners' Aid Societies exist in Kenya, Tanganyika, and Zanzibar and the formation of such a society is at present under consideration by the Government of the Gold Coast.
§ Mr. TurtonWill my right hon. and gallant Friend draw the attention of the Governors to the desirability of establishing a Prisoners' Aid Society in each Colony?
§ Colonel StanleyI would not like it to be thought that because there is not a Prisoners' Aid Society in all Colonies steps are not taken for the rehabilitation of prisoners.
§ Mr. TurtonWill my right hon. and gallant Friend draw the attention of the Governors to the matter?
§ Colonel StanleyYes, Sir.
