HC Deb 19 March 1993 vol 221 c431W
Mr. Pickthall

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs what representations his Department has made to the Government of Grenada in relation to the convictions of the former members of the People's Revolutionary Government of Grenada who were sentenced to death; and what information he has about the conditions under which Phyllis Coard is kept.

Mr. Lennox-Boyd

None. The death sentences on those convicted of the murder of Maurice Bishop were commuted to life imprisonment on 14 August 1991.

At present Mrs. Coard shares accommodation with one other female prisoner. She is allowed visitors, has access to medical and recreational facilities, and is employed in the prison tailor's workshop.
