  • Fact Page 11-12 Healthy Prison Summary Hp.01-Hp.46 13-22
    REPORT ON A FULL ANNOUNCED INSPECTION OF HM PRISON LEWES 10-14 MARCH 2003 BY HM CHIEF INSPECTOR OF PRISONS Crown copyright 2003 ISBN ???????? Printed and published by: Her Majesty’s Chief Inspectorate of Prisons 1st Floor, Ashley House Monck Street London SW1P 2BQ England 2 INTRODUCTION This is not only a report on a good local prison; it is also a report on a prison which has become significantly better, due to effective management and a committed staff group. This improvement was endorsed by many prisoners we spoke to, and by the Board of Visitors. Lewes faces many difficulties. It is an old and poorly-maintained prison. It receives a high proportion of mentally disordered prisoners, many of them with a history of substance abuse, and this has been linked to the high rate of self-inflicted deaths (5 in the preceding year). It seeks to work as an effective local prison, preparing prisoners for release locally, but is frustrated in this by the fact that those prisoners are routinely moved further away from home after short periods, because of the pressure of prison overcrowding. Prison overcrowding has also forced the prison to hold some prisoners in cramped and unfit conditions, particularly on one wing. It is therefore a tribute to the prison’s staff and managers that in many of the areas covered in this report, Lewes scores significantly higher than most local prisons. From the results of our prisoner survey, Lewes was considerably better than other local prisons in relation to reception and first night arrangements, perceptions of safety and respect, and access to telephones: often as much as 20-30% above the average.

  • Rough Transcript, Check Against Delivery
    1 MICHAEL GOVE MP THE ANDREW MARR SHOW 12TH JULY 2020 MICHAEL GOVE MP Minister for the Cabinet Office (Rough transcript, check against delivery) AM: Mr Gove, welcome. Should face masks be mandatory in shops in England? MG: I don’t think mandatory, no. But I would encourage people to wear face masks when they’re inside in an environment where they’re likely to be mixing with others and where the ventilation may not be as good as it might. So I think that it is basic good manners, courtesy, consideration to wear a face mask if you are, for example, in a shop. AM: But we don’t need the law to do that? MG: Well, I trust people’s good sense. Of course the government at all times does look at the emerging evidence about what the best way to control the disease is. If necessary and if tough measures are required, as we’ve seen in Leicester – obviously a very different situation – then tough measures will be taken. But on the whole my view is that it’s always better to trust to people’s common sense to give them their sense of what is wise, and I think that individuals and businesses are responding well to that lead. AM: You’re talking about borders today. Are Britain’s borders going to be ready and secure by the end of this year? MG: Yes, I think they will be. AM: Because your colleague, Liz Truss, as we know, as expressed some real worries about this. She said in her letter that she wanted assurances ‘that we’ll be able to deliver full control at ports by July 2021 and that plans are in place from January to 2 MICHAEL GOVE MP mitigate the risk of goods being circumvented from ports intercepting port controls.’ In other words, the whole thing is tight by then.

  • Prisons (Interference with Wireless Telegraphy) Bill HL Bill 121 of 2017–19
    Library Briefing Prisons (Interference with Wireless Telegraphy) Bill HL Bill 121 of 2017–19 Summary The Prisons (Interference with Wireless Telegraphy) Bill is a private member’s bill which would authorise public communication providers to disrupt the use of unlawful mobile phones in prisons. The provisions replicate those from the Government’s Prisons and Courts Bill (introduced in the 2016–17 session), which fell at the dissolution of Parliament for the 2017 general election.1 It would amend the Prisons (Interference with Wireless Telegraphy) Act 2012—which enabled prison governors to interfere with wireless telegraphy to disrupt mobile phone use in prisons—by allowing public communication providers to also interfere in an independent capacity. The bill was initially introduced in the House of Commons on 19 July 2017 by Ester McVey (Conservative MP for Tatton). However, when Ms McVey became a government minister in November 2017, Maria Caulfield (Conservative MP for Lewes) took over sponsorship of the bill. The bill received its second reading on 1 December 2017 and completed its stages with cross-party support in the Commons on 6 July 2018. On 9 July 2018, the bill received its first reading in the House of Lords under the sponsorship of Baroness Pidding (Conservative). It is due to receive its second reading in the Lords on 26 October 2018. Provisions of the Bill Clause 1 of the bill would amend section 1 of the Prisons (Interference with Wireless Telegraphy) Act 2012 (PIWTA) to allow the Secretary of State to authorise public communication providers (PCPs) to interfere with wireless telegraphy in prisons.

  • Elizabeth Truss Risks Causing Chaos in England's Nursery
    FORUM Volume 55, Number 3, 2013 www.wwwords.co.uk/FORUM Like an ‘Uncontrolled Toddler’ Elizabeth Truss Risks Causing Chaos in England’s Nursery Education and Child Care Sector JOHN WADSWORTH ABSTRACT This article looks at the impact of the Education and Childcare Minister on the provision of early childhood education and care in England. Policies being developed and promoted by Elizabeth Truss predate her appointment as a minister and are consistent with the radical neo-liberal agenda pursued by Secretary of State Michael Gove. The author draws on news articles and policy announcements and calls into question the misuse and abuse of international comparisons to justify changes to early years policy in England. In September 2012 a cabinet reshuffle saw Elizabeth Truss replace LibDem Sarah Teather as Parliamentary Under Secretary for Education and Childcare. Given Truss’s credentials as one of the more virulent members of the Conservative Parliamentary Party (she is a founder member of the Free Enterprise Group of Conservative MPs and co-author of ‘Britannia Unchained’ [1]), it seems likely that she was Gove’s choice for the ministerial post. Like Gove, Elizabeth Truss is a believer in the unfettered market and is committed to the removal of red tape that gets in the way of the private sector being able to maximise its profits. She also shares his ability to seek out evidence from other countries to justify policy and then either misunderstand or completely misinterpret it. Like Gove, Liz Truss has adopted a ‘scorched earth’ policy, moving rapidly to alter the face of educare in England and making sure that it will be almost impossible for any future government to have a significant role in this particular area of social policy.
