HC Deb 30 March 1933 vol 276 c1200W
Dr. SALTER

asked the Home Secretary whether any apparatus for the carrying out of executions has been constructed during the last three years; and whether any of it was made in any of His Majesty's prisons or Borstal institutions?

Sir J. GILMOUR

The only apparatus of this nature which has been made in any of His Majesty's prisons or Borstal institutions during the last three years are certain minor component parts which have no necessary or evident connection with the execution apparatus.
