Daniel Davies Chief Officer
Department of Home Affairs Isle of Man Government

BY EMAIL 13 April 2023 Dear Mr Davies, TERMS OF REFERENCE – ISLE OF MAN PRISON

Thank you for meeting with me and on 21 March 2023 to ask if the PPO could carry out investigations into two deaths that occurred at Isle of Man prison on 25 November 2022 and 24 February 2023. I am writing to confirm agreement that my office will conduct a thorough, independent investigation into both deaths and to set out terms of reference for the investigations.

Purpose of the investigations

The Minister for Justice and Home Affairs (Isle of Man Government) has commissioned the Prisons and Probation Ombudsman (PPO)1 to:

• investigate and report on the decisions, actions (including failures or refusals to act) and circumstances surrounding the deaths of two individuals at Isle of Man prison, on 25 November 2022 and 24 February 2023;
• review the clinical care provided to the prisoners in conjunction with a clinical reviewer; • ensure as far as possible that the full facts are brought to light and any relevant failings are exposed, any commendable action or practice is identified, and any lessons from the deaths are made clear; • provide explanations and insight for the prisoners’ families and • make any appropriate recommendations.

Scope

In particular, the PPO will investigate:

1 The Ombudsman is appointed through an open competition by the Secretary of State for Justice. The Ombudsman’s office is operationally independent of, though it is sponsored by, the Ministry of Justice. The Ombudsman reports to the Secretary of State. The PPO’s Terms of Reference are at www.ppo.gov.uk.

• the circumstances and events surrounding the deaths; • the operational management of the prisoners by Isle of Man prison;
• the clinical care provided to the prisoners while they were at Isle of Man prison; • the levels of integration and information sharing between Isle of Man prison and relevant services; and • whether any changes in operational methods, policy, practice or management arrangements of the services involved would help prevent similar deaths in future.

Method

The PPO may defer all or part of the investigations when the police are conducting a criminal investigation in parallel.

The Isle of Man Prison Service will appoint a Liaison Officer at the prison in order to facilitate the investigations. The Liaison Officer should act as a point of contact for the investigations and enable the investigator to contact relevant parties where necessary, both within the prison and other authorities within remit.

The PPO will have unfettered access to all relevant material held both in hard copy and electronically. This includes classified material, physical and mental health information, internal reports and inf
