Written Question
Dartmoor Prison
Thursday 25th November 2021

Asked by: Geoffrey Cox (Conservative - Torridge and West Devon)

Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what progress the Government has made on discussions with the Duchy of Cornwall on the future of HMP Dartmoor; and what recent assessment he has made of the potential merits of retaining that site within the prison estate beyond 2023.

Answered by Victoria Atkins - Secretary of State for Health and Social Care

Discussions with the Duchy of Cornwall regarding the future of HMP Dartmoor are ongoing, and it is not possible to provide an update on progress without prejudicing the outcome of those commercial negotiations. The potential for Dartmoor to remain operational as a prison beyond 2023 is similarly dependent on the outcome of the discussions.
