HL Deb 15 January 1990 vol 514 c514WA
Lord Macaulay of Bragar

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What representations they have received following the publication of the Kincraig Report of the Review Committee on Parole and related issues in Scotland [Cmnd. 598] and when it is anticipated that legislation, if any, will follow in the light of the report.

Lord Sanderson of Bowden

Some 40 organisations and individuals responded to the invitation from my right honourable friend the Secretary of State for Scotland to submit comments on this report, which was published on 23rd March 1989. The Government are considering the recommendations in the light of the comments received and our conclusions, which will have regard to any legislative implications, will be announced in due course.
