Boredom among prisoners is a concern at Scotland's only open jail, the Chief Inspector of Prisons has warned.

More needs to be done to improve how prisoners at Castle Huntly in Dundee are prepared for release, Brigadier Hugh Monro said, after the first full inspection of the jail since 2008.

Catle Huntly was reorganised in 2011 when the closure of Noranside open prison in Angus meant all prisoners were moved there.

Brigadier Monro's report found that the open prison is safe and that prisoners are treated with decency, humanity and with respect for their legal rights. It also found good provision of healthcare.

Prison vocational training should be reviewed and risks posed by prisoners with a history of domestic violence should be looked at, the report said.

Brigadier Monro said: "This was a good inspection. However, I am worried about the general feeling of boredom and the poor quality of recreation."
