HC Deb 07 December 1922 vol 159 cc2046-8W
Mr. RAINE

asked the Attorney-General if, in view of the protests from the several municipalities in the County of Durham, and also from the county council, regarding the proposed removal of the assizes from Durham to Newcastle, the chairman of the committee appointed to inquire into the whole question will have an opportunity of hearing evidence from representatives of these authorities?

Sir D. HOGG

I have nothing to add to the answer I gave to a similar question addressed to me by the hon. Member for Thirsk and Malton (Mr. Turton) on the 29th of last month.
