14.4 Inmate questionnaire

A form (see below) was generated for each prison unit. Each form was pre-populated with inmate identities for the unit to which it was sent. To allow time for prison officers to complete the forms, a preliminary copy was supplied, based on the muster of the Sunday preceding census day. Prison officers were able to complete the preliminary census form prior to census day, and then make deletions (where inmates had been released) as appropriate on actual census day. A shorter list reflecting new arrivals since the Sunday was supplied and completed on actual census day.
