Further to the Written Answers by Lord Falconer of Thoroton on 21 May (WA 83) and 4 June (WA 152–3 and WA 171–4), how many prison officers have been arrested and convicted of corruption or other offences in each of the past four years in connection with their duties as prison officers at HM Prison Lincoln. [HL4242]
No prison officers from HM Prisons Foston Hall, Gartree, Leicester or Lincoln have been convicted of offences in connection with their duties in the past four years. I indicated in a previous Answer that the Prison Service does not routinely record this kind of information. However, I have asked the Prison Service to collate the information to cover all the prison establishments in England and Wales for each of the past four years. Once collated, I will write to the noble Earl.
asked Her Majesty's Government:
Further to the Written Answers by Lord Falconer of Thoroton on 21 May (WA 83) and 4 June (WA 152–3 and WA 171–4), how many prison officers have been arrested and convicted of corruption or other offences in each of the last four years in connection with their duties as prison officers at HM Prison Lowdham Grange. [HL4243]
The NOMS contract with the operator of HMP Lowdham Grange sets out the data required from it and this does not include the information relating to the Question asked. The NOMS is, however, conducting a review of data required from contractors with a view to extending the information made available.
asked Her Majesty's Government:
Further to the Written Answer by Lord Falconer of Thoroton on 6 June (WA 195), for each of the years 2001 to 2005 inclusive, how many prosecutions or convictions for corruption (or related offences) involved prison officers. [HL4244]
The court proceedings database, which supplied the statistics for my Answer on 6 June (WA 195), does not divide the figures by occupation. I therefore refer the noble Earl to my Answer on 21 May (Official Report, col. WA 83).
