HC Deb 01 November 1993 vol 231 cc51-2W
Mr. Morgan

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what representations he has had from the area criminal justice liaison committee for Mid, South and West Glamorgan, Dyfed and Gwent with respect to secure accommodation for young offenders and remandees; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Gwilym Jones

I have received one letter on this subject from the chairman of the area criminal justice liaison committee for the three counties of Glamorgan and Gwent to which I replied on 2 September. I am anxious for the planned 18- place secure unit at Neath to be built as soon as possible, and I next look forward to receiving a grant application in respect of the capital costs for this project from West Glamorgan county council.
