§ Sir F. Markhamasked the Attorney-General what is now his estimate of the approximate total cost of the mail train robbery trial recently held at Aylesbury; and what part of this cost will fall on the ratepayers of Buckinghamshire.
The Attorney-GeneralThe costs of the prosecution in these proceedings amounted to £32,375 6s. 2d. I expect that, with the possible exception of about £100, the whole of this sum will be paid out of local funds.
