The coroner's concerns
1. inadequate equipment for barricade situations
“My concern however is that for doors that are not dual opening prisons should have appropriate equipment available to deal with barricade situations. Should there be a check or audit to ensure that the correct equipment for the relevant doors are located appropriately at prisons?”
2. barricade incidents
“The conclusions of the investigations by the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman led to a suitable action plan being implemented at HMP Featherstone in matters relating to violence reduction, discharge from mental health team and barricade incidents”
