– Scottish Parliament written question – answered at on 23 May 2005.
Question S2W-16476
To ask the Scottish Executive how it reconciles the answer to question S1W-33063 by Mr Jim Wallace on 21 January 2003 with the answer to question S2W-16105 by Cathy Jamieson on 4 May 2005 in respect of how often the controller of HM Prison Kilmarnock has agreed that a cell may be shared by two prisoners under section 23.4.1 of the Minute of Agreement between the Secretary of State for Scotland and Kilmarnock Prison Services Limited for the Design, Construction, Management and Financing of a Prison at Kilmarnock in each quarter of the prison’s operation and in the current year to date and whether it will provide a revised answer to question S2W-16105.
I have asked Tony Cameron, Chief Executive of the Scottish Prison Service to respond. His response is as follows:
The answer provided to questions S1W-33063 and S2W-16105 were correct. The answer to question S2W-16105 was intended to convey the fact that no instances of section 23.4.1 being invoked had been recorded since question S1W-33063 was answered.
