Proceeding contribution from Elfyn Llwyd (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 31 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Prisons Competition.
Prisons Competition
The Secretary of State will be aware of the recent report on HMP Bronzefield, a privately run women's prison. It found seven cases of self-harm per day, one woman who self-harmed 93 times in a month, and one woman who was kept in segregation for three years with very little human contact. Health care was shockingly poor, with no female GPs, and pharmacy services were tortuous and inconsistent. How on earth can it be for the public good to extend private sector prisons?
