HC Deb 11 November 1981 vol 12 cc93-4W
Mr. Cartwright

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment (1) what estimate has been made by the Property Services Agency of the likely cost of building a new prison at Woolwich Arsenal;

(2) whether he has yet authorised a full feasibility study by the Property Services Agency on the proposed new prison at Woolwich Arsenal; and when he expects a detailed report.

Sir George Young

A full feasibility study is in progress and I am hoping to receive its report next summer. This report will include a preliminary order of cost.
