HC Deb 12 June 1980 vol 986 cc279-80W
Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will publish the age, sex, and length of time in celled confinement, by establishment, of those prisoners currently in celled confinement in borstal.

Mr. Brittan

Information is not readily available in the form requested. Information about offences punished and punishments awarded in borstals in 1978 is published annually in "Prison Statistics, England and Wales"—tables 9.3 and 9.6 of the issue for 1978, Cmnd. 7626.
