Is the Under-Secretary aware that it ought to be known? Is he aware that my own computations and visits to local prisons have shown that something up to 25 per cent. of the population of local prisons may be there either because of a refusal to grant bail, or because of non-compliance with an order for the payment of money? Is not that one of the principal causes of overcrowding in prisons? Is it not a matter that could be dealt with, and will the hon. and learned Gentleman call the attention of magistrates to the fundamental right of a person to bail, except in very exceptional circumstances?
