Wales should have more power over its own prisons and probation system.
Please read the written evidence that we have submitted to @justiceinwales: https://t.co/ylTBuF42Tt
'The Welsh Government owns the land and says the prison plan can not go ahead there, and shouldn't anywhere else in Wales' - a resounding victory for grassroots campaigners in Port Talbot including our own @bethanjenkins AM 👏🏴 https://t.co/BGPSnjrzg3

Very good news that WelshGov has ruled out construction of a super prison on #BaglanMoors.
Next step is to ensure that MoJ withdraws its proposal, I will continue to ask questions, seek meetings, and keep up the intensive lobbying to make that happen. #Aberavon@stopNPTprison https://t.co/8IUDh5CyaR
Assaults on #prison staff at a record high in #Wales & the #MOJ want to force a 2nd 'super prison' on the Welsh people in #Baglan more prisoners more problems, it would be a 'super prison' in only it's size & failings, no more prisons ANYWHERE in Wales https://t.co/WdeGRwsOFq
@SKinnock@AlunCairns@WelshGovernment@NoPrisonBaglan @DavidReesAM We don't need another super prison in Wales. We don't need the capacity. As long as not in your constituency ok though Eh! Only need one big enough to replace old Swansea and Cardiff not fit for purpose prisons if that
Good to get 2 bites of cherry at Justice Qs
Good that Prison Minister confirmed he understands our profound concerns abt Baglan site & that he'll be meeting @AlunCairns next week & Welsh @WelshGovernment ASAP. I look forward to joining those meetings @NoPrisonBaglan @DavidReesAM
.@susanelanjones asks if smaller prisons perform any better than larger prisons? We hear from the POA that larger prisons are much more difficult for staff to work in. @PGA_Prisons tell us that levels of austerity determine prison performance rather than the size.
#WelshPrisons
.@DavidTCDavies asks whether or not building new prisons in Wales can solve overcrowding? @Napo_News tell us that they want to reduce the numbers going to prison.
