Summary

Mr C complained that the Scottish Prison Service (SPS) unreasonably failed to give him sufficient time to eat lunch before the exercise period. He also said the SPS unreasonably failed to provide one full hour's exercise time. Mr C was released from prison whilst we were investigating his complaint and did not provide us with a forwarding address. We were unable to make contact with him despite making several enquiries. Therefore, we closed his case in line with our procedures.
