Prison visits begin

Friday, 25 April 2008 23:25

The £41 million facility was officially opened by Home Affairs Minister Martyn Quayle earlier this week, and all 2,400 visiting places for this weekend and next have been taken up.

There will be be two sessions on each visiting day, from 9am to midday and from 1pm to 4pm.
