HC Deb 11 November 1975 vol 899 c623W
Mr. Hooley

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many prisoners on parole have been mistakenly recalled from parole in the last 12 months; what is the average time they have spent in custody after their recall; and whether there is any scheme to compensate them.

Dr. Summerskill

We know of only one complaint of mistaken recall which is under investigation. If my hon. Friend has another case in mind we shall look into that also.
