HC Deb 03 May 1923 vol 163 cc1647-8W
Mr. MARDY JONES

asked the Attorney-General whether he is aware that the release of Willie Morgan, Newport, on bail, with liability to appear at the Monmouth Assizes next June, is causing public apprehension in South Wales, having regard to his acquittal by the magistrates; and whether he will consider the desirability of entering a nolle prosequi in this case?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

I see no ground for the existence of any such apprehension as is suggested in the first part of the question in view of the fact, as stated by my right hon. Friend the Home Secretary in answer to the hon. Member on the 26th of last month, that I have directed the entry of anolle prosequi and that this man has been released from prison.
