Julie Morgan Is my hon. Friend aware of the success made in Wales in tackling offending by women—in particular, the success of the Women's Turnaround Project, based in Cardiff, which aims to stop women reoffending and going to prison? Will he congratulate that project? — from debate entitled “Offender Management” The three speeches/headings immediately before - 1 earlier: Wayne David
I understand from the hon. Lady's comments that she is against a new prison in north Wales. There is a strong case for such a prison. One of the central factors is, of course, that it would not only serve north Wales, or Wales as a whole, but receive prisoners from the north-west of England, so its catchment area would be far wider. - 2 earlier: Angela Watkinson
Does the Minister accept that the number of prisoners from north Wales would have to treble to meet the Ministry of Justice criteria for building a new prison there? - 3 earlier: Wayne David
The Secretary of State and I regularly hold such meetings. For example, I recently met the Minister of State, Ministry of Justice, my hon. Friend the Member for Liverpool, Garston (Maria Eagle) to discuss the importance of a new prison in north Wales that would have a positive impact on offender manager in that area, by enabling prisoners to remain close to their families—a proven factor in reducing reoffending.

- If the video suddenly jumps a couple of hours, or otherwise appears broken, let us know.
- If the speech you're looking for is beyond the end of the video,
move on to the next video chunk.
- If you're right at the start of a day, it's quite possible the start of the video
will be the end of the previous programme on BBC Parliament, skip ahead some minutes
to check :)
- Hansard is not a verbatim transcript, so spoken words might
differ slightly from the printed version. And a small note – if
the speech you are looking out for is an oral question (questions asked in the
first hour or so of Monday–Thursdays in the Commons), then all the MP
will actually say is their question number, e.g. “Number Two”.
- The skip buttons move in 30 second increments (you can go
back before the start point), and you can access a slider by hovering
over the video.
