§ Mr. Corbettasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department why the Department has ceased its practice of replying in detail to inquiries about individual prisoners made on behalf of families by the Prisoners Aid Committee.
§ Dr. SummerskillIt is not normally the practice to consider disclosing information about individual prisoners other than to certain official bodies—for example, the police—relatives or those who have a prisoner's prior consent to receive it. In so far as information was disclosed to the Prisoners Aid Committee on a different basis, it was done in error.
