HC Deb 19 December 1988 vol 144 cc137-8W
Mr. Kirkwood

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will recognise the Royal College of Nursing to represent nurses who work in prisons.

Mr. Douglas Hogg

No approach has been made by the Royal College of Nursing to represent nurse grade staff working in prison service establishments. Should an approach be made it will be considered on its merits.
