HC Deb 22 June 1916 vol 83 c355W
Mr. POLLOCK

asked the Home Secretary whether the closing of Warwick Prison is a temporary measure only, and, if so, for how long; and whether the possibility of making use of it during the War for prisoners of war or otherwise has been considered?

Mr. SAMUEL

Warwick Prison is closed as a temporary measure only. It is not possible at this date to say when it will be reopened as a civil prison. The use of the prison for other purposes is now under consideration.
