Whether, since large parts of the prison Standing Orders and Circular Instructions as they were in September 1977 have now been published by the European Commission as Appendix IV to the Commission's report on the cases of Silver and others, and have been made available by the Commission in that form to prisoners currently engaged in pursuing complaints against Her Majesty's Government in respect of interference with their correspondence, they will now publish an up-to-date edition of these documents, and place a copy in every prison library for the use of prisoners in England and Wales.
§ Lord BelsteadWe are reviewing the restrictions on correspondence to and from prisoners in England and Wales in the light of these cases. The revised Standing398WA Order and an abbreviated guide to its contents will be published and will be made available to prisoners.
