Debate

Prison Services: Insourcing

Contribution

My Lords, is it not the Minister’s experience that prisons are unlike the outside world and, as I found when I was giving my report into prisons, it is very important to understand those differences? Is there not a danger, if we do not continue to allow prisons to look after their own affairs, wherever possible, that they will not be looked after even as well as they are now?
