Total Quantity or Scope

HMP Dumfries serves the local courts of Dumfries and Galloway. It holds up to 55 male offenders who are remanded in custody for trial or reports and short-term convicted male offenders. Upon average the prison receives 220 admissions per year from courts and average liberations are 130 per year. HMP Dumfries also provides a national mainstream facility for holding up to 140 long-term and short-term offenders who require separation from mainstream offenders because of the nature of their offence, termed as offence related protection offenders. It is also a facility that can accommodate difficult to place individuals who may be at risk due to their previous employment such as Police and Prison staff. The prison normal operating capacity is 175 but has risen to a temporary operating capacity during the pandemic of 185. It has capacity to rise to around 210 dependent on other population demands within the prison estate. The attached document details the Health Board’s requirements in respect of the provision of GP services to support the delivery of medical services at HMP Dumfries.
