Prisoners
Philip Davies:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department if he will list the (a) battery and (b) mains electrical equipment that prisoners are permitted to keep in their cells; and if he will make a statement. [60077]
Fiona Mactaggart:
Battery and mains electrical equipment that prisoners are permitted to retain in their cells varies between prisons. The list of in-possession items for each establishment is set by the governor. Televisions are not considered in-cell possessions, as they are hired from the public sector Prison Service.
Philip Davies:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department pursuant to the answer of 15 March, to question 58643, on prisoners, what estimate he has made of the cost of providing the information requested. [60350]
Fiona Mactaggart:
The cost exceeds the limit set out in Cabinet Office guidance for answering parliamentary questions.

Note:
First receptions provide an indication of the number of new prisoners in a time period. A person received into prison to serve a sentence may previously have been received on remand after conviction prior to sentence, and before that as a remand prisoner awaiting trial. First receptions will count that prisoner only once in the relevant period in which they were first received.
