HC Deb 13 June 1980 vol 986 c329W
Mr. George Cunningham

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the reason for delay in replying to the letter dated 28 April addressed to the Minister of State by the hon. Member for Islington, South and Finsbury concerning prisoner K20529 at Lewes prison.

Mr. Brittan

I have written today to the hon. Member. The delay arose from the need to make inquiries outside the Department.
