HC Deb 07 December 1988 vol 143 c207W
Mr. Harry Greenway

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what inquiries will be undertaken into the disturbances in Her Majesty's prison Lindholme in July by(a) Her Majesty's chief inspector of prisons and (b) the prison's board of visitors; and when reports will be produced.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

A full inquiry into the incident was conducted by the deputy director general of the prison service in July and a copy of his report is in the Library. Her Majesty's chief inspector of prisons has not been invited to make any new inquiry, and I understand that Her Majesty's prison Lindholme board of visitors has no plans to do so.
