This could not be done without incurring disproportionate cost.</p><p>Police cells are not normally used to accommodate prisoners remanded or sentenced by the courts. However, circumstances can exceptionally occur – for example where there is major traffic disruption owing to bad weather or other causes – in which it is not possible, at the end of the court proceedings, to complete a journey to a prison in the time available.</p> answering member constituency South West Bedfordshire answering member printed Andrew Selous question first answered 08/12/2014 14:42:59 answering member 1453 label Biography information for Andrew Selous
