HC Deb 17 January 1975 vol 884 cc193-4W
Rev. Ian Paisley

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland (1) if he can now state the amount of damage done by the IRA during the destruction of the Maze Prison;

(2) if he can now estimate the amount of money necessary to rebuild the Maze Prison.

Mr. Moyle

I would refer the hon. Member to the answer given to the hon. Member for Down, North (Mr. Kilfedder) on 6th November 1974—[Vol. 880, c.176–7.]—It is not yet possible to give a more accurate estimate than the provisional estimate of £1.5 million already given.

Rev. Ian Paisley

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what action has been taken against those responsible for the destruction of the Maze Prison.

Mr. Moyle

The Royal Ulster Constabulary are examining the circumstances in which damage was caused to the Maze Prison on 15th and 16th October last.
