Proceeding contribution from Jake Richards (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 26 March 2026. It occurred during Backbench debate on Prison Officers: Mandatory Body Armour.
Prison Officers: Mandatory Body Armour
I absolutely accept the principle that prison officers should be safe at work and be given the tools to be so. Every prison of each different category has a different context, culture and working environment, and each has to make an assessment of the risks therein.
