The question

To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the answer to question S1W-27913 by Mr Jim Wallace on 22 August 2002, why the grade of staff is not a relevant consideration for the cost of staff.

I have asked Tony Cameron, Chief Executive of the Scottish Prison Service to respond. His response is as follows:Because the model in question is a cost model and therefore used the cost of staff rather than grades of staff.
