HC Deb 15 December 1926 vol 200 c2942W
Mr. RHYS DAVIES

asked the Home Secretary whether he will furnish a Return showing the apparent causes of the murders committed by the convicted murderers in England and Wales since the publication of the last such Return in the Criminal Statistics for 1906?

Captain HACKING

I could not undertake that a Return would be furnished. As regards the notes in the Introduction to the Criminal Statistics, which in 1905 gave some particulars, I can only say that the question whether the matter should be dealt with again will be considered. A great deal of labour would be involved.
