HC Deb 22 November 1917 vol 99 c1394W
Mr. WILKIE

asked the Secretary for Scotland whether he has received a petition from the prison officers asking for concessions in the matter of pay and allowances to meet the increased cost of living; and whether he will give the petition favourable consideration?

Mr. MUNRO

A petition has been received. I am not in a position at present to make any further statement except that the petition will receive my consideration in consultation with the Prisor Commissioners for Scotland, the Treasury, and other authorities interested.
