§ 26. Mr. Michael McNair-Wilsonasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will set up an inquiry into the extent to which the existing prison system contributes to the reform of prisoners and to examine whether improvements could be made in this regard.
§ Mr. MayhewWe should welcome wider and more informed discussion on this and other aspects of prison administration, but we do not consider that a formal inquiry would be helpful or appropriate at present.
