§ 116. Mr. Mikardoasked the Secretary of State for Air why correspondence between the hon. Member for Reading and one of his constituents in the prison and detention barracks at Trimulgherry has been intercepted by the commandant of that barracks.
§ Mr. de FreitasI have not yet had a reply to my inquiries about this case, and I will communicate further with my hon. Friend as soon as possible. The Rules made under the Army and Air Force Acts for Military and Air Force Prisons and Detention Barracks give commandants discretionary power about letters to or from members of the Army or the Royal Air Force under sentence.
