Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask His Majesty's Government how many prisoners are currently held in prisons on indeterminate sentences whose home addresses are recorded as being in Wales.
As of 30 September 2024, excluding those recalled to prison following release, there were 342 prisoners serving indeterminate sentences who had a recorded home address in Wales.
As at 30 September 2024, there were a total 8,501 prisoners serving indeterminate sentences in custody in England and Wales, excluding those recalled to prison following release.
The figures have been drawn from administrative IT systems which, as with any large scale recording system, are subject to possible errors with data entry and processing.
