Where a detainee’s handset does not comply with these restrictions they are provided with a suitable handset by the immigration removal centre supplier so that they may maintain contact with friends, family and other means of support.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 21/03/2018 13:12:58 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
