Mr. McFall

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what plans he has to establish a bail hostel in each sheriffdom in Scotland. [7752]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

Accommodation for persons on bail is currently available in the sheriffdoms of Glasgow and Strathkelvin, Lothian and Borders, Grampian, Highlands and Islands, and Tayside, Central and Fife. There are plans to establish further provision within the sheriffdom of Tayside, Central and Fife. There are no plans to establish a bail hostel in every sheriffdom.
