answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/02/2021 answer text <p>Prison chapels and multi-faith spaces have remained open for private prayer and reflection in a COVID-19 secure manner during the pandemic. The spaces have also been used to help support family contact in cases of family illness and bereavement.</p><p>Chaplains of all faiths play a central role in supporting prisoners during the pandemic. Although group worship has been temporarily suspended to ensure the safety of staff and prisoners, Chaplains have continued to visit prisoners on a one-to-one basis providing pastoral care, spiritual support and resources for worship. We will resume group worship in prison chapels and multi-faith spaces gradually in line with public health guidance, when it is safe to do so.</p> answering member printed Lord Wolfson of Tredegar question first answered 09/02/2021 15:12:05 answering member 4901 label Biography information for Lord Wolfson of Tredegar

uin	HL12597
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/02/2021 answer text <p>All adult prisons are currently in a stage four regime, as outlined in the National Framework, to reduce contact between people and therefore reduce the chance of transmission of COVID-19. The regime restrictions we have implemented have brought new and different challenges across the prison estate and it is not currently practicable to provide as much access to open spaces as would ordinarily be the case for those in prisons where these facilities are available.</p><p> </p><p>However, all prisons are required to deliver the essential elements of prison regime which includes daily access to exercise, wellbeing checks, domestics (e.g. phone calls, showers and cell cleans) and, in some cases, some structured on-wing activity.</p><p> </p><p>The Ministry of Justice and HM Prison and Probation Service understand the importance of maintaining the safety, mental health and wellbeing of prisoners and this has remained a priority during the COVID-19 pandemic.</p> answering member printed Lord Wolfson of Tredegar question first answered 09/02/2021 15:11:20 answering member 4901 label Biography information for Lord Wolfson of Tredegar
