HC Deb 26 July 1967 vol 751 c167W
Mr. Whitaker

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what plans he has to increase prison earnings, in order to facilitate his proposal that prisoners should pay restitution.

Mr. Roy Jenkins

As the efficiency of prison industries improves, earnings are being increased. The question of reparation by the offender is under consideration by the Advisory Council on the Penal System.
