Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanson of Flint (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 18 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Crime and Security Bill.

Crime and Security Bill

Will the hon. Gentleman confirm that in the past two years, when I was prisons Minister at the Ministry of Justice, we signed with the Prison Officers Association an agreement on zero tolerance on attacks on prisoners? I will not take lessons on that, because there has been co-operation on the issue. The Government will not tolerate attacks on prisoners. Furthermore, they have put massive investment into the mobile phone problem, with body orifice security scanner—BOSS—chairs and extra security measures. They have looked at blocking measures and security with police forces at a local level.
