§ Mr. Adleyasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department (1) what is the cost to public funds of the book of prison slang produced by his Department for prison visitors;
(2) how many copies of the book of prison slang have been printed by his Department; how he intends to distribute it; and if he has plans for further similar books relating to other sections of his Department.
§ Mr. Merlyn ReesThe cost to public funds of producing the glossary of terms and slang common in penal establishments was £177.78. Three thousand copies were printed; the majority have already been distributed to members of boards of visitors, for whom the glossary was devised. I have no plans for any other such glossaries
