HC Deb 16 February 1976 vol 905 cc526-7W
Mr. Dudley Smith

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will now order an inquiry into the case of William Charles Waite, serving a life sentence for murder following the detailed submission made to him by the hon. Member for Eastleigh (Mr. Price) and the hon. Member for Warwick and Leamington in July 1974 and which has been under consideration ever since.

Mr. Alexander W. Lyon

I wrote to the hon. Member about this case again on 12th February. We can find no grounds on which the setting up of an inquiry would be justified.
