MAN’S DEATH IN PRISON
IMPROVEMENT SOUGHT IN MEDICAL FACILITIES The Canterbury Drivers’ Union is to forward recommendations dealing with medical facilities for prisoners at the Paparua prison to the Government. The secretary of the union (Mr A. S. Roberts) said that the union had discussed the findings of the Coroner at the inquest recently into the death of a prisoner at Paparua, Francis Jeremiah Carey, who at the time of his death was a financial member of the union. The union, he said, was fully in accord with the Coroner’s findings, and felt there should be an improvement in the medical facilities at the prison. The recommendations would probably be sent forward through the Drivers’ Federation at Wellington, Mr Roberts said.
