asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will take steps to ensure that the three Bahraini political prisoners on St. Helena are receiving all the mail, books and documents addressed to them at Mundens Prison, and that their letters are being delivered.

I understand that there was some delay in the delivery of one mail. That is being investigated. Apart from that I have no reason to support that mail is not being delivered safely. I will certainly look into any specific cases if the hon. Member will write to me.
