Mr. Kilroy-Silk
asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what is the longest period that a prisoner currently in Holloway has been on remand and with what she is charged.
Mr. Whitelaw
[pursuant to his reply 17 March 1980, c. 11–12]: The longest period for which any person held on remand in custody in Holloway prison on 31 January 1980 had been so held was 440 days. Two women had been so held and each had been charged with drugs offences.
