HC Deb 07 July 1983 vol 45 c142W
Mr. Bermingham

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what educational facilities are available for long-term prisoners at Her Majesty's prison. Walton, Liverpool.

Mr. Hurd

Long-term prisoners at Her Majesty's prison, Liverpool are awaiting allocation to training prisons where they will serve the greater part of their sentences. Subject to overriding security considerations, they are offered opportunities during their stay in Liverpool prison to attend evening classes and to follow "in cell" study programmes. The governor is considering how the facilities for daytime education might be extended.
