Prisons: Crimes of Violence
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many prisoners have caused (a) harm to themselves, (b) harm to other prisoners and (c) harm to members of the prison service in (i) HMP Parc, (ii) HMP Bure and (iii) HMP The Mount in the past 24 months.
- Answer
-
Safety and security in prisons is our top priority, and we take the mental health and wellbeing of prisoners and staff extremely seriously. The precise information requested could only be obtained at a disproportionate cost.
There is published data on the number of self-harm incidents, assaults by prisoners on other prisoners and assaults by prisoners on staff at each prison establishment within the Safety in Custody statistics, available at https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/safety-in-custody-quarterly-update-to-march-2017
