On some of the points raised in the course of this discussion, the noble Baroness, Lady Fox, asked for comment on prisoners. I can say to her that, as she already alluded to, segregation of people in prison outside the Mental Health Act is subject to separate rules and safeguards, including review and approval by segregation review boards and notification to the independent monitoring board. The noble Baroness will, of course, observe that my noble friend Lord Timpson is in his place and will have heard the points that she made.
