Mr. McNamara: To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what the criminal convictions are of Charles Conlon, a prisoner in
HMP Maghaberry; when his most recent conviction was; what sentence he is serving; how many days he has served in solitary
confinement; and if he will make a statement on the circumstances of his punishment. [159563]
Mr. Ingram: Charles Conlon's criminal record currently runs to 16 pages and spans a period of 22 years. It includes convictions for
12 counts of criminal damage, 18 counts of burglary, theft, five counts of riotous/ disorderly behaviour, 12 counts of common
assault, 17 road traffic offences, 25 assaults on police, three counts of deception, 15 serious assaults, four robberies, two counts
of possessing an offensive weapon, eight counts of obstructing police and two incidents of arson. Charges in relation to an incident
in which he bit a prison officer twice are currently being investigated by the police.
His most recent conviction was on 16 January 2001 when he received two six-month sentences for assaulting two prison officers. These
sentences were to be served consecutively to a two and half year sentence, imposed on 14 October 1999, for threats to kill, assaults
on police, perjury and assault. His current earliest date of release (EDR) is 29 July 2001.
Mr. Conlon has an unenviable record of poor behaviour during his present period of imprisonment. He has been charged and adjudicated
upon for offences against prison discipline on 70 separate occasions. He has a propensity for, and history of, serious assaults on
prison staff and other prisoners. He has been held in the Punishment and Segregation Unit (PSU) at HMP Maghaberry since 21 November
1999, under Rule 32 of The Prison and Young Offenders (NI) Rules 1995. This is to restrict his association for the maintenance of
good order and discipline within the prison. Recent efforts to reintegrate Mr. Conlon into the ordinary prison population have been
unsuccessful.
Judgment on a Judicial Review hearing earlier this year to examine Mr. Conlon's conditions of imprisonment has been reserved.
