asked the Home Secretary whether his attention has been called to the case of Mrs. A. Gibbons, of Brixton, who is at present serving a sentence of two months' imprisonment in Holloway Gaol for the offence of secreting her adult son; and if he will consider the various extenuating circumstances in connection with the case with a view to recommending the remission of the remainder of the sentence?

Mr. LOCKER-LAMPSON:

Yes, Sir, and, having made inquiry, the Home Secretary has felt justified in advising the remission of the remainder of the sentence passed upon Mrs. Gibbons.
