plus 63 per cent. of those aged 16 years, for each parliamentary constituency in Northern Ireland, together with the equivalent

Sir John Wheeler: The 1991 electoral ward population figures taken from the Northern Ireland census, aggregated to parliamentary
constituencies are as follows. Subsequent mid-year estimates are provided at district council level only and not broken down by age.
Consequently the equivalent electoral registration figures shown relate to September 1991.

Miss Widdecombe: Responsibility for this matter has been delegated to the Director General of the Prison Service, who has been asked
to arrange for a reply to be given.
Letter from A. J. Pearson to Mr. Barry Jones, dated 14 October 1996:
The Home Secretary has asked me, in the absence of the Director General from the office, to reply to your Parliamentary Question
about the latest estimate of the numbers of prisoners in United Kingdom open and closed prisons; and the corresponding figures for
1991.
On 31 July 1996, there were 4,650 prisoners in open prisons and 51,500 persons in closed prisons in England and Wales. These figures
include prisoners held in young offender institutions.
Information for 30 June 1991 is published in "Prison statistics, England and Wales", table 1.7 of the 1991 edition, column 2157;
annual average population figures are given in table 1.6. A copy of "Prison statistics" is available in the Library.
Information for Scotland and Northern Ireland is the responsibility of the Secretaries of State for Scotland and Northern Ireland.
