Ruari Hardy, Head of Law Enforcement, said:
“The healthcare in our custody system is an incredibly important part of the local criminal justice system. Even if a person has been arrested, they still have the right to be properly assessed and looked after, and it is not unusual for people to come in to custody needing some sort of medical attention. Whether that be a general assessment, a drugs test, or treatment for a pre-existing issue, the custody system simply would not work without the healthcare providers. We are very grateful to our previous supplier, but are also looking forward to working with PHL group and drawing on their experience of working with other law enforcement agencies from around the UK.”
