HC Deb 09 July 1928 vol 219 c1866W
Mr. MALONE

asked the Home Secretary how many of the 10,683 debtors imprisoned during the year 1936 had served one previous term of imprisonment for debt, and how many had served more than five, 10, and 20 such terms, respectively?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

I regret I cannot give this information. In the case of "debtor" prisoners, no record is kept of previous commitments.
