HC Deb 18 December 1958 vol 597 c291W
83 Mr. Marlowe

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department for what illness prisoner 4639 Alfred Piears in Wandsworth Gaol has been admitted to hospital; whether he is aware that, in spite of repeated inquiries, no information has been given to his wife as to the cause of his admission or of his condition; and whether he will ensure that an up-to-date medical report is supplied to the wife of this prisoner.

Mr. R. A. Butler

It has not been possible to give Mrs. Piears any conclusive information because despite protracted and careful investigation no definite diagnosis has yet been reached. The prisoner was yesterday removed to an outside hospital for further investigation and Mrs. Piears has been so informed.
