The way prisoners on remand in England and Wales are held should be changed to improve fairness and reduce costs, a report has said.
Nick Hardwick, the Chief Inspector of Prisons, said in a report that remand prisoners were treated less well than convicted inmates.
The rule that they should not be housed with convicted inmates was not being observed in practice, he added.
The prison service said it was addressing issues in the report.
