Proceeding contribution from Adrian Bailey (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 October 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Prison Estate.


Prison Estate

I welcome my right hon. Friend’s statement. The issue of prison capacity was raised with me on many occasions while I was working with the West Midlands police this summer, and I believe that these proposals will help. However, I should like to raise the issues of the availability of drugs and the illicit use of mobile phones in prisons. As well as increasing prison capacity, will my right hon. Friend undertake to look into the recruitment of warders and the management of our prisons?
