§ Mr. William Rossasked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland if he will list in the Official Report the modifications made to the new prison at Maghaberry over the last two years, or financial years, which have cost more than £1,000 and the cost of each such modification.
§ Mr. Scott[pursuant to his reply, 12 June 1985, c. 481]: A substantial amount of planning work has been undertaken over the last two years for a range of modifications to the prison. The transfer of liquid petroleum gas tanks to meet new health and safety regulations has been completed at a cost of just under £27,000. Site works have started on several other projects, but since they have not yet been completed their final costs are not available.
§ Mr. William Rossasked the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland whether the roof of the new prison at Maghaberry was designed and built of fireproof materials.
§ Mr. Scott[pursuant to his reply, 12 June 1985, c. 481]: The design and material used take proper account of the dangers of combustion, and comply with the fireproofing requirements in the building regulations.
