In conclusion I have to state that the
majority of the Prison Warders hitherto obtained from home, have been selected from the Irish Prisons probably on account
of the pay being smaller in that service than in Scotland
and England, and the majority of the candidates having volun-
teered from Ireland.
With one exception the Irish Warders have
not been a success, and would strongly recommend that in
the present case the candidates be selected from Scotland
and England.
If the new rates of pay are adopted they
will I think attract men fromthose countries.
I have etc.,

Capt.Supt. of Police.
