A High Security prisoner is to know the gist of report and reasons for his categorisation: "on the first and subsequent annual reviews, fairness, in my view, requires that the gist of the reports be revealed in order to give the opportunity for comment". What the prisoner is entitled to is "to be informed of the gist of any matter of fact and/or opinion relevant to the determination of his security category".
