HC Deb 20 February 1956 vol 549 cc7-8W
76. Mr. Parkin

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what special treatment is being provided in Central Prison, Nicosia, for detainees Economou, suffering from osteitis and arthritis, Perdios, Christodoulou and Emmanuel, ex-tubercular cases, Siepis, suffering from chronic bronchitis, and Mouskos, from duodenal ulcer; and when it is intended to charge these men with an offence.

Mr. Hare

As the information is lengthy I will send the hon. Member details of the medical notes on these detainees and of the medical attention which they are receiving. He will, I hope, be satisfied that everything possible is being done for them. It is not at present intended to prefer charges against any of them.
