To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answers to questions S1W-33537 and S1W-34414 by Mr Jim Wallace on 27 February and 31 March 2003 respectively, whether the Crown Office can provide a record of convictions in relation to offences of violence or other similar category of offences at HM Prison Kilmarnock.

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

As the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service does not record cases by the locus of the offence, the information requested is not available.
