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

Points were applied in Year 6 Period 1 to be carried back to Year 4 Period 2 when the assault took place. The establishment informed us that the prisoner was found guilty on 5 November 2003 and sentenced to five months imprisonment. Upon receipt of this information the appropriate performance measure was applied.
