To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answers to questions S1W-32815 and S1W-32816 by Hugh Henry on 13 January 2003, whether there has been any case where an incident at HM Prison Kilmarnock has been recorded as a serious assault for the purposes of the Scottish Prison Service’s key performance indicators, but where performance points have not accrued to the prison because an adjudication or criminal conviction has not been secured.

I have asked Tony Cameron, Chief Executive of the Scottish Prison Service to respond. His response is as follows:

Yes, for the reasons set out in the question.
