Proceeding contribution from Tom Brake (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 31 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Prisons Competition.


Prisons Competition

Does the Secretary of State agree that localism is as important in the prison sector as anywhere else, and that there is a risk that if a very small number of very large conglomerates take over the running of all the private prisons, the voluntary sector, social enterprises and charities will be excluded from taking part in the exciting rehabilitation agenda that the Government are pursuing? How can he ensure that does not happen?
