HC Deb 11 June 1980 vol 986 cc175-6W
Mr. McCusker

asked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland how many persons have been reported in connection with offences under section 26(d) of the Prison Act (Northern Ireland) 1953; how many of these were people who had been granted bail in the magistrates' courts; and how many had been granted bail in the High Court.

Mr. Alison

This information is not available at present. But, as I explained to the hon. Member in my answer to him on 24 April 1980, a review of bail is in hand and I shall provide further information when this is complete.—[Vol. 984, c. 269.]
