GAOL FEES.
- - -

Mr. BENNET moved for leave to bring in a Bill
for the Abolition of Gaol Fees, and certain other
Fees received in the Prisons of Great Britain. The
Honourable Member stated, that the Bill which he
proposed to introduce was a copy of that which had
unanimously passed that House last Sessions, with
the exception only of certain clauses which he thought
proper to omit, because they were objected to else-
where. That a measure of this nature was necessary,
he was more and more convinced from all that he
had been able to collect upon the subject. .Indeed,
from his own personal observation in the course of a
pretty extensive tour which be had lately taken, he
could entertain no doubt that the Fees and other ex-
actions complained bf in our prisons, was one of the
greatest practical evils which justice and humanity
bad to deplore in this country.
Mr. Alderman SHAW asked the Honourable
Mover, whether it was his intention to include all the
gaols in the kingdom in his proposed measure, or to
make any exception ?
Mr. BENNET replied, that it was his intention to
comprehend all the gaols, excepting only those of the
Icing's Bench, the Fleet, and the Marshalsea, which
.were under the direction of the superior Courts of
Law— but even with respect to these prisons, he had
leis contemplation to propose the appointment of a
Committee, to enquire into their state and conduct,
especially upon the subject of fees.
• Mr. Alderman SHAW thought it would be more
expedient to postpone the introduction- of any Bill on
this subject until the Committee the Honourable
Ocilflemart bad in contemplation should have made
i!; report, because on such report the measure might
be rendered more comprehensive. Should the Bill
pass in the shape now proposed, the Hon. Member
must be aware, that any prisoner in the gaols meant
to be excepted, might by Habeas Corpus have him-
self removed to the City prison, and so contrive to'
escape the payment of fees, while he would also be.
come entitled to certain allowances. Thus the City
Loadm might become liable to an additional in-
cumbrance.—The motion was agreed to.
