HULL PRISON: USE OF "A" WING (Hansard, 23 July 1986)

HL Deb 23 July 1986 vol 479 c370WA 370WA

§ Lord Avebury
asked Her Majesty's Government:
Whether they will consider using A Wing at Her Majesty's Prison Hull as a Rule 43 OR Unit, instead of treating it as part of the dispersal system, bearing in mind the difficulty of operating a dispersal regime for only 30 inmates.

§ The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Home Office (Lord Glenarthur)
No. When A Wing at Hull Prison ceases its present role we intend to use the accommodation for a long-term prisoner unit of the kind recommended by the Control Review Committee in its reportManaging the Long-Term Prison System.
