HC Deb 20 May 1980 vol 985 cc98-9W
Mr. Kilroy-Silk

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how long Mr. D. Wakefield, a prisoner at Long Lartin, has been in solitary confinement; and for what reason.

Mr. Brittan

There is no such thing as solitary confinement. Douglas Wakefield has been segregated from association with other prisoners under prison rule 43, in the interests of good order and discipline since September 1978.
