Ministry of Justice written question – answered on 2nd July 2015.
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what the average daily out-of-cell time was for prisoners in each prison in each of the last 10 years.
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many out-of-cell hours offenders are provided with at each prison establishment that operates planned restricted regimes.
Time out of cell for prisoners varies across the prison estate and the information requested is not held centrally.
The amount of time prisoners are allowed to spend outside their cells to engage in activities (other than work, education, treatment interventions, recovery focused services or religious services), or to associate together, will vary from one establishment to another, depending on the availability of constructive activities and supervisory staff. All prisons are required to have systems in place to monitor regimes and ensure that they are safe, decent, secure, resilient and sustainable.
