§ 39. Mr. Kirkwoodasked the Lord Advocate whether he is aware of the circumstances under which permission for 617 the use of the Victoria Park, Yoker, for a demonstration in support of legitimate wages claims was first granted by the parks director and later refused by the magistrates; and whether it is intended to prosecute any of the 10,000 workers who attended the demonstration.
§ The Lord Advocate (Mr. J. S. C. Reid)I am aware of the circumstances referred to in the first part of the Question. I have made inquiry but I have no evidence to show that any offence was committed in the course of the demonstration. Accordingly the question of prosecution does not arise.
