Abstract
The Glenochil complex situated near Tullibody, Alloa, comprises a Detention Centre, established in 1966, and a Young Offenders Institution which opened in 1976. There were no deaths at the complex until 1981 but between 1981 and 1984 five inmates died. In accordance with standard procedure, fatal accident inquiries are conducted after each death. Since our review commenced there have been two further deaths at Glenochil on 18 February and 13 April 1985.
