| Prisoners can make a complaint if they have any problems. There are two basic ways for prisoners to make a complaint. They can use internal prison procedures or go outside the prison system - to their MP for example.
The Prison Service takes complaints very seriously and there is a process for making sure that complaints are dealt with as quickly and as fairly as possible. |

HM Probation Service |
| The National Probation Service works to high standards and we hope this is reflected in how we work with you. That sounds fine - but what if I have a complaint? To be considered, your complaint has to be about an action or a decision taken by probation staff, the local Probation Board, a Board member, a contractor, agent or volunteer working for the probation service. You can also complain about a failure to take action or make a decision by any of these people. |
