HC Deb 07 April 1919 vol 114 cc1704-5W
Mr. KILEY

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that Isaac Hall, a native of Montego Bay, Jamaica, who has served nearly twenty-six months in prison, and has been under punishment during a great part of this time, is suffering mentally under the strain of this long imprisonment; and whether he will have inquiries made into his health, both mental and physical, with a view to his release on health grounds?

Mr. SHORTT

The medical officer of Pentonville Prison, having examined this man, can find no signs of imprisonment having been detrimental to either his mental or his bodily health; he is fit for military service.
