§ Mr. Christopher Priceasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will now cause an inquiry to be held following the open verdict on the death of Stephen Smith at Wormwood Scrubs on 3rd August 1974 and new evidence that potential witnesses at the inquest may have been been intimidated.
§ Dr. SummerskillNo; I am aware of no new evidence which calls for modification of the reply I gave to a Question by the hon. Member for Berwick-upon-Tweed (Mr. Beith) on 10th December 1974—[Col. 883, c.104–5]. If my hon. Friend wishes it I shall gladly let him have the fuller details mentioned in the reply.
