(2) how many applications have been received for transfers from prisons in Britain to Northern Ireland, from (a) loyalist prisoners, (b) republican prisoners, (e) men and (d) women; and how many of each have been accepted.

Mr. Peter Lloyd

Revised criteria governing transfers between United Kingdom jurisdictions were announced on 23 November 1992. It is open to any prisoner to make a request for such a transfer; 39 male and two female prisoners who were previously known to have expressed an interest in transferring to Northern Ireland have been specifically invited to submit requests for transfer under these criteria.
