Summary

Mr C, who is a prisoner, complained that there was unreasonable delay in the prison generically assessing him. A generic assessment is carried out on individual prisoners to identify whether or not they are required to complete offence-focused programmes. In investigating Mr C's complaint, we were satisfied that he had been generically assessed in line with the prison's process and there was no evidence of an unreasonable delay.
