§ Colonel WEDGWOODasked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that J. W. Hill, a conscientious objector in Liverpool Prison, has been in prison for two years and nine months, is in a very poor state of health both mentally and physically, and is being seriously affected by his abnormally long imprisonment; and whether he will have inquiries made with a view to his release on health grounds?
§ Mr. SHORTTThere is no reason to think this man's health is being injured by imprisonment. He sleeps well and has increased in weight since his reception in prison in January last. He cannot be certified as unfit for military service.
