HL Deb 02 December 1999 vol 607 c54WA
Lord Lester of Herne Hill

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will publish the report by Sir David Ramsbotham, Chief Inspector of Prisons, into conditions at HM Prison Wandsworth; and, if not, why not. [HL68]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Home Office (Lord Bassam of Brighton)

Yes. As with all inspectorate reports, the report on Wandsworth prison is going through a process in which it is being checked for accuracy. It is likely to be published in December.
