<p>We will modernise the prison estate, closing older prisons that are not fit for
purpose and creating in their place high-quality, modern establishments.</p><p>This
will help deliver prisons that are more safe and secure, so our staff can work more
closely with offenders to change their lives and turn their back on crime for good.</p><p>Decisions
have yet to be made about the future operation of any new prisons or existing privately
managed prisons where contracts are due to expire in the next five years.</p>
