"We invite comments on any of the points made in this section, and also on the Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment at Annex B which discusses the possible impact on extending coverage to the bodies concerned.

In particular we invite you to consider the following:

   * Are there any factual inaccuracies in our analysis?
   * Is there a case either for or against extending coverage to private prisons and prison escort services that you wish to make?
   * Are you able to provide any evidence to support your arguments?
   * Are there any other comments you wish to make, including any on the partial Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment at Annex B?"
