Section Three The second year – activities and key issues by type of detention to be addressed. For example, the board at Hydebank Wood welcomed efforts to increase the length of time that prisoners spend out of their cell but noted that this could be increased even further. It also welcomed a newly extended visiting facility, where mothers and their children can spend quality, private time together. Nonetheless, the board recommended fundamental changes at Hydebank Wood: • the board believes the prison is unsuitable for under-18s and that they should be held separately from older prisoners. It recommends under-18s be held in the Juvenile Justice Centre rather than in prison • there should be a stand-alone women’s prison. Women prisoners require different approaches, facilities and staff trained to deal with them but the current provision at Hydebank Wood is inadequate. The protest by separated republican prisoners at Maghaberry was closely monitored by the IMB. It welcomed a new search facility and a revised searching policy which sought to address some of the prisoners’ concerns. The boards at all three prisons expressed concerns which mirror those identified in inspections by CJINI and HMIP. These included concerns about those prisoners with mental health problems who required admission to a secure hospital but were instead being cared for in prison; the availability of drugs; limited time out of cell; an insufficient quantity and range of purposeful activity; a lack of adequate educational provision, particularly for young prisoners; and overcrowding. 25
