Prisons: Telephone Services

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice what charges were made by each prison to inmates to use payphones in each of the last 10 years.
Answer

The information requested is not held centrally and could be obtained only at disproportionate cost. To provide a complete answer requires access to detail which is not easily available and requires lengthy consultations with contractors who provide both the public and private sector prisoner telephone networks.
