§ Angela EagleTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many accidents occurred on the prison estate to(a) employees and (b) inmates, broken down by establishment, in the last five years. [113671]
§ Paul Goggins[holding answer 15 May 2003]The number of accidents to employees and prisoners from April 2002 to 13 May is shown in the following tables. Until April 2002, Home Office Health and Safety Services was responsible for recording all the accident statistics for the Prison Service. In April 2002, the Prison Service Safety Section assumed responsibility for this task and changed the system to ensure that the statistics gathered met the Services needs. The information for the period up until April 2002 is being collated from Home Office records and I shall write to my hon. Friend.
