§ 27. Mr. JOWETTasked the Home Secretary if he is aware that the sanitary arrangements at Knutsford Prison are seriously defective, and also that there is neither hospital accommodation nor is there suitable provision for observation in case of sickness which might prove to be due to diphtheria or other infectious disease; and, if so, whether any action is being taken to remedy these defects at the prison referred to?
§ Mr. BRACEThe sanitary arrangements at Knutsford Work Centre are satisfactory in every respect. The buildings include an ordinary hospital and an isolation hospital, either or both of which could be made immediately available if required. Fortunately no hospital accommodation has hitherto been required at this centre.
