Mr. GreenwayTo ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many redundancies he expects as a result of the tendering out of the prison education service.
§ Mr. Peter LloydThe staff who provide education services in prison establishments are not employed by the prison service. Decisions on redundancy are a matter for the employer and it is not yet possible to quantify whether and to what extent staff currently employed in delivering education services in prisons may be made redundant following competitive tendering.
