§ Mr. GouldTo ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster if he will take steps to prohibit the export by United Kingdom firms of gallows and other equipment whose sole purpose is use in the carrying out of the death sentence; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mr. Alan ClarkNo. I understand that gallows and related equipment may be constructed from items designed for other purposes and the export of which it would be impractical to control.
