To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what reviews are being carried out in respect of young offenders who are being held on remand at Her Majesty's prison, Hull; and if he will make a statement.

The governor is providing the regional director with periodic progress reports and regional office staff are visiting Hull every eight to 10 weeks to review progress. The deputy director general of the prison service visited the prison on 21 April and I visited it on 28 April. Improvements have been made to the regime and conditions on B wing and plans for further improvements are in hand.
