HC Deb 22 June 1921 vol 143 cc1374-5W
Mr. MacVEAGH

asked the Chief Secretary whether James Smyth, Patrick Reavey, Daniel Reavey, and Daniel Rafferty, arrested near Newry in March, are still in custody; and, if so, where and on what charge?

Mr. HENRY

James Smyth and Patrick Reevy are interned at the Curragh internment camp under the Restoration of Order in Ireland Regulations, No. 14B. Patrick Rafferty, who is probably the man referred to by the hon. Member as Daniel Rafferty, is serving three years' penal servitude for the possession of ammunition and seditious literature, including an Irish Republican Army pamphlet on night firing, and is in a prison in England. No person of the name of Daniel Heavy has been in police or military custody.
