Magilligan Prison
(asked on 13th December 2017) - View Source
Question to the Northern Ireland Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, if he will take steps during the absence of a devolved administration to discuss with the Department of Justice the rebuilding of the Prison at Magilligan in County Londonderry.
This question was answered on 18th December 2017
As I stated in my previous response on 27 November 2017, responsibility for prisons in Northern Ireland is primarily a devolved area. Under the devolution of policing and justice in 2010, the Department of Justice (DoJ) is solely responsible for management of the prison estate.
