HC Deb 16 December 1992 vol 216 c215W
Mr. Hinchliffe

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will take steps to speed up the request and complaints procedure between prisoners and the prison service headquarters.

Mr. Peter Lloyd

Seventy-one per cent. of Prison Service headquarters replies are already within the time target set. Prison Service management will be considering what can be done to improve on that proportion.
