§ Mr. CoxTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what action he now proposes to take to improve the facilities for women prison officers who are now working at Wandsworth prison; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mrs. RumboldA number of toilets and showers have been designated for the use of female staff only. Current redevelopment will also permit the incorporation of dedicated female toilets, showers and changing rooms in the reception area and hospital wing in spring 1991. Additional facilities for women staff will come into use in 1992 when the current refurbishment of D wing is complete. All of these developments have been agreed following consultations at HM prison Wandsworth.
