NOMIS alert for sensitive security information

NOMIS should include a facility for an alert to appear if information is held by the Security Department on prisoners which could affect their management but which is too sensitive for wider dissemination. An officer at the grade of senior officer or above should be able to ask for that information, and the request should be considered by the governor with line management responsibility for the Security Department. The governor should be able to refuse the request, or grant it on condition that the senior officer does not reveal the information to anyone, or on condition that the senior officer can tell their wing staff about it on the understanding that it is not to go any further.
