Jack Straw says Omega Site is one of the sites under consideration for Titan Prison

In a letter sent to Warrington Borough Council, the Rt Hon Jack Straw, MP says:

“We have yet to confirm our interest in specific sites, and the Omega site in Warrington is one of a number which are under consideration in the North West.  Once sites are identified, we intend to follow the normal planning route and will make an application for planning permission to the appropriate local planning authority.

Before we submit any planning application, my officials will hold pre-application consultations with planning officers, local councillors and other interested parties on the detail of the proposed prison development in the usual way.  This will include a public exhibition to explain the proposals and give local people the opportunity to comment.”

Miller Developments and Jack Straw in discussion over purchasing part of Omega for prison development

According to an article on ContractJournal.com, the Ministry of Justice has been in contact with Miller Developments and held discussions relating to purchasing part of Omega to build “some form of prison development”.

We need you to write to Andrew Sutherland and Jack Straw to ask them what’s going on and what’s being discussed, because so far, Miller have remained tight-lipped and the Ministry of Justice have been sitting on the fence.
