HC Deb 12 December 1980 vol 995 c519W
Mr. Meacher

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if, further to his reply to the question of the hon. Member for Oldham, West on 4 December, he will give the reasons why he will not make available the transcript of the Williams trial regarding the Wakefield special control unit.

Mr. Brittan

A transcript is not in the possession of the Home Office and the cost of obtaining one would not be a justifiable charge on Home Office funds.
