To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to HMPPS's Action Plan in response to the Independent Review of the Case of Joseph McCann, published on 30 June 2020, for what reason no response has been given to the recommendation of that Review on ensuring that prisons comply with the requirement to share all relevant information, including from prison security departments and records of prison behaviour, with the Parole Board.

Our usual processes are to work to the Draft HMI Probation Report when drawing together the HMPPS Action Plan. HMI Probation did not indicate that they were amending the report recommendations prior to publication. We will now address the additional recommendation in the Inspection Report and publish an amended Action Plan at the earliest opportunity.
