HC Deb 22 February 1926 vol 192 c69W
Mr. MARCH

asked the Home Secretary whether there are still any Irish political prisoners imprisoned in this country; and, if so, how many?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

There are at present 13 Irish convicts serving their sentences in English prisons, but I am not aware of any grounds on which their offences could be regarded as political.
