162 Mr. G. Mitchell asked the Minister for Justice the number of persons imprisoned in 1988 and in 1989 for (a) non-payment of fines and (b) on foot of civil committal orders for non-payments of private debts.
I refer the Deputy to my reply to Question No. 111 of 7 November 1989 in which I set out the number of people committed to prison in 1988 for non-payment of debt.
