Prisoners: Injuries

Asked by Andy McDonaldLabourMinistry of JusticeTabled Answered 12 December 2024UIN 18134

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many prisons in England and Wales operate (a) a Linkworker Scheme and (b) another dedicated support scheme for people with acquired brain injury.

Answered by Sir Nicholas Dakin

The requested information is not held centrally. Collating it would involve contacting 122 prisons individually, which could not be done without incurring disproportionate cost.
