§ Mr. Kelleyasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will take steps to ensure that all prisoners involved in proceedings before the Board of Prison Visitors arising from incidents at Her Majesty's Prison, Hull, between 21st August and 2nd September last, are fully informed of their right of appeal to the Queen's Bench Divisional Court.
§ Mr. Merlyn ReesI understand that the powers of the Divisional Court of the Queen's Bench Division in relation to adjudications by boards of visitors will shortly be considered by that court, to which a prisoner has made an application. When I know the court's decision, I shall give further thought to the matter raised by my hon. Friend.
