Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if he will list the differences between the regimes in male and female prisons and the treatment of men and women in prison.
This question was answered on 25th March 2020
Each prison has its own regime. These are designed to meet the specific rehabilitation needs of that prison's population. The male estate constitutes seven different categories and the regimes in these prisons naturally differ from each other as well as from that present in the female estate.
