§ Mr. Michael WelshTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what action he is taking to implement that part of Judge Stephen Tumin's report which stated that B wing of Hull prison was no place for 15 and 16-year-old boys, or for any unconvicted prisoner under 21 years of age.
§ Mr. Douglas HoggThere is no feasible alternative at present to the continued use of B Wing of Hull prison to accommodate unsentenced prisoners under 21 years of age. The plan is for a new remand centre to be built at Everthorpe in 1991–92 which will relieve the situation. Meanwhile strenuous efforts are being made to improve the regime and conditions in Hull's B wing.
§ Mr. Michael WelshTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if any young people from Doncaster area are currently held in Hull prison while waiting for their cases to be dealt with by the courts.
§ Mr. Douglas HoggOn 12 May there were in Hull prison 14 unsentenced prisoners aged between 17 and 20 whose home addresses were recorded as in Doncaster.
