Recommendations
I recommend that the prison look at introducing for issue to prisoners a more formalised set of cards, in various languages, with the sort of words and phrases which Mr Mckinney found helpful in Wu's case.
I recommend that the Scottish Prison Service do not delay in completing an assessment of the viability of introducing Language Line.
A helpful suggestion made was that the prison should proactively make contact with cultural organisations which may, for example, be prepared to visit inmates.
