Mr. Cartwright
asked the Secretary of State for the Environment when he expects to be able to announce the outcome of the public inquiry into the proposal to build a prison at Woolwich.

The inquiry into this proposal closed on 4 March and the inspector is currently preparing his report, which is likely to be submitted to my right hon. Friend later this month. A decision will be announced as soon as the report has been fully considered.
