Business plan 2022-23 (PDF, 282.8 KB)

This business plan provides a framework for the delivery of our work. It outlines assumptions about the operating context, learning from our experience of the COVID-19 pandemic, the resources available to HMI Prisons, and the main high-level risks associated with our work.

I have now completed my first full year as Chief Inspector of Prisons and what continues to impress me is the clear sense of purpose and dedication of all staff at the Inspectorate. Our inspection staff have remained in the field throughout the pandemic supported by our Secretariat and Research teams.

This business plan sets out our priorities for the next year and will enable the Inspectorate to continue to drive improvement in outcomes for detainees in the custodial settings we inspect.

Charlie Taylor, Chief Inspector of Prisons
